sperates the cell's contents from its surroundings, it controls the movements of susbtances such as glucose, oygen and carbon dioxide

cytoplasm
jelly like substance within a cell, where many of the cells chemical reactions take place, contains organelles(tiny structures that carry out specific jobs, such as-nucleus, mitochondria etc)
2 of 11
nucleus
contains genetic material, DNA, also controls all the activities of the cell.
3 of 11
mitochondria
where the respiration occurs- glucose and oxygen react together to release energy needed by the cell.
4 of 11
cell wall(plants)
made of tough cellulose to support the cell and allow it to keep its shape
5 of 11
vacuole(plants)
space in the cytoplasm filled with cell sap and helps support the plant by keeping the cells rigid
6 of 11
chloroplasts(plants)
organelles which contain chlorophyll, a green substance that absorb light energy in order to carry out phtosynthesis
7 of 11
cell wall(bacteria)
more flexible, not made of cellulose
8 of 11
flagellum
long whip like structures used to help themselves move around
9 of 11
chromosomal DNA
giant loop of DNA containing most of the genetic material, not neatly packaged like plants or human chromosomes
10 of 11
plasmid DNA
small loops which carries extra genetic information, used for genetic engineering
