Animal and plant cells

MOST CELLS HAVE:

  • a nucleus to control the cells activitie
  • cytoplasm where many chemical reactions take place
  • a cell membrane that controls the movement of material in and out of the cell
  • mitochondria where energy is released during aerobic respiration
  • ribosomes where protein synthesis takes place

PLANT AND ALGAL CELLS ALSO HAVE:

  • a rigid cell wall made of cellulose for support
  • chloroplasts that contain cholorphyll for photosynthesis- the cholorplasts absorb light energy to make food
  • a permanent vacuole containing cell sap

Bacteria and yeast

BACTERIA:

  • have a cell membrane and a cell wall which surround cytoplasm
  • have no nucleus- genetic material is in the cytoplasm
  • multiply to form a colony which can be seen by the naked eye 

YEAST:

  • is a single-celled organism
  • have a nucleus, cytoplasm and a membrane surrounded by a cell wall      (http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQ3-7LkThbOYQEoQuJiJHwht2HPYwRD8sZbRIGPK0_D21tWBqbj)
