PLANT AND ANIMAL

CELLS
Cell Theory:
• All organisms are
made up of one or
more cells.
• The cell is the
basic unit of
organization of all
organisms.
• All cells come from
other cells already
in existence.
CELL WALL:
PLANT
• Function:
Gives the cell most
of its support and
structure
• A thick, rigid
membrane that
surrounds a plant
cell
• Bonds with other
cell walls to form
the structure of
the plant

Cell Wall
 CELL MEMBRANE
Plant and Animal
• Function:
Semi permeable,
allowing some
substances to pass
into the cell and
blocking others.
• Thin layer of
protein and fat that
surrounds the cell

Cell Membrane
• Function:
Where the organelles Cytoplasm
are located.
• The jellylike material
located inside the
cell.

Cytoplasm
ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM
• Function:
transports
materials through
the cell
• Rough ER is
covered with
ribosome's that
give it a rough
appearance

 Chloroplast
• Function:
Manufactures food
through
photosynthesis. Uses
energy from sunlight
to make sugar.
• An elongated or disc-
shaped organelle
containing chlorophyll
• Only in Plant Cell

Chloroplast
 Golgi Bodies
• Function:
Golgi bodies are the
packaging and
secreting organelles of
the cell.
• Are stacks of
membrane-covered
sacs that package and
move proteins to the
outside of the cell.

Animal Cell

Golgi
Body
 Lysosome
• Function:
Where the digestion of
cell nutrients takes place
• Also called cell vesicles
• Spherical organelles
surrounded by a
membrane
• They contain digestive
enzymes

Lysosome
 Mitochondria
• Functions:
Where energy is
released.
• Rod-shaped
organelles with a
double membrane
• Membrane is
infolded many
times, forming a
series of
projections
(called cristae)
• In Both Plant and
Animal Cell

Mitochondria
 Nucleus:
• Function: The Manager
Controls many of
the functions of
the cell
• Spherical body
containing many
organelles,
including the
nucleolus
• Contains DNA (in
chromosomes)
• Surrounded by the
nuclear membrane
• In Both Plant and
Animal Cell
Nucleus Animal Cell

 Ribosomes
• Function:
Small structures in
the cytoplasm that
create proteins.
• Ribosome's are
either free floating
in the cytoplasm of
a cell or attached to
endoplasmic
reticulum in a cell.

Animal Cell

 Vacuole
• Function:
Like your suitcase, a
vacuole is a
temporary storage
space for the cell.
• Fluid-filled,
membrane-
surrounded cavities
inside a cell
• Filled with food
being digested and
waste material that
is on its way out of
the cell
• Many in Animal, One

 Nuclear Membrane
• Protects and guards the nucleus
• Controls movement of materials in and out of
the nucleus
• Keeps the DNA inside the nucleus
• Allows other materials to pass in and out of
the nucleus

 Nucleolus
• Controls the cells activity… The Brain
• Inside the nucleus
• The nucleolus is the part of the nucleus
which contains most of the genes that
code for the synthesis of ribosomal RNA
