Cells contain smaller parts called organelles. These include the nucleus, mitochondria and ribosomes.
The single nucleus controls the cell's activities and it is surrounded by a watery cytoplasm.
It contains DNA, the genetic material the provides the instructions for synthesising the chemicals the cell needs, like enzymes.
Inside the cytoplasm hundreds of chemical reactions take place and these reactions are controlled by the enzymes.
