1 Cell Structures and Functions

2 2 Types of Cells: Prokaryotic Eukaryotic Has a nucleus No nucleus
Organelles have no membranes Very small Eukaryotic Has a nucleus Organelles have membranes Much larger

3 Prokaryote Eukaryote

4 Two Types of Prokaryotic Cells
Eubacteria: Common bacteria Smallest Cells No nucleus, but do have DNA Archebacteria: Similar to bacteria, but can live in places no other organisms can live (such as high salt or high heat environments

5 Two Types of Eukaryotic Cells
Plant Cells: Make up plants Have a cell wall Have chloroplasts Makes its own food Vacuoles are large Animal Cells: Make up animals No cell wall No chloroplasts Cannot make own food Vacuoles are small

6 Animal Cell

7 Plant Cell

8 Cell Organelles Organelles are the tiny working parts of cells.
All organelles are specialized. All cells have organelles which help to carry out the processes for life

9 Animal & Plant Cell Organelles:
Cell membrane-the outer layer of the cell; separates the cell from the outside environment Cytoplasm-the jelly-like fluid that takes up most of the inside of the cell; all interior organelles are suspended in the cytoplasm; gives the cell shape and support

10 Animal & Plant Cell Organelles:
Vacuole-small in animal cell; it stores water and other materials. Mitochondria-breaks down food molecules for energy to sustain the cell. Lysosome-digests food particles, wastes, and foreign particles.

11 Animal & Plant Cell Organelles:
Ribosomes-where proteins are made in the cell Nucleus-largest organelle in the cell; contains DNA and is the control center for the cell Nuclear Membrane-Contains most of the animal cell organelles

12 Plant Cell Organelles Vacuole- Is MUCH larger in a plant cell
Cell Wall- Is much more rigid than only having a cell membrane. Makes cell look square Chloroplast- Uses energy from the sun to make food; makes plants appear green
