- Cells
- prokaryotic
- smaller + simpler
- does not have chloroplasts, mitochondria or a true nucleus
- 1) single, circular strand of DNA that floats freely in the cytoplasm
- 2) plasmids
- 3) cell wall
- 4) cell membrane
- 5) cell membrane
- smaller + simpler
- eukaryotic
- complex and include all animal + plant cells
- animal
- 1) nucleus - contains genetic material that controls activities of the cell
- 2) mitochondria - most reactions for aerobic respiration take place.
- 3) cytoplasm - gel like substance where most of the chemical reactions happen. contains enzymes that control such reactions.
- 4) cell membrane - holds the cell together and controls what goes in and out.
- 5) ribosomes - these are where the proteins are made in the cell.
- plant
- *has extra subcellular structures*
- 1) rigid cell wall - made of cellulose. supports + strengthens cell.
- 2) chloroplasts - where photosynthesis occurs. contains chlorophyll which absorbs light needed for photosynthesis
- 3) permanent vacuole - contains cell sap: a weak solution of sugar + salts.

- animal
- complex and include all animal + plant cells
