Tissue
A group of cells working together to perform a function E.g. Skin, muscle, liver, brain
Cell
The building blocks of all living organisms. Cells can be prokaryotic or eukaryotic
Eukaryote
Plant and Animal cells are eukaryotic cells as they have a cell membrane, cytoplasm
and a nucleus
Prokaryote
Bacterial cells are prokaryotic cells as they are very very small have a cell wall
around their cell membrane and they do not have a nucleus
Cell Membrane
An envelope that surrounds the cell and lets substances in and out
, Nucleus
Contains DNA and controls the cells activity
Cytoplasm
The jelly centre of the cell which holds the sub-cellular structures and is where all
the chemical reactions happen
Cell Wall
Only found in plant cells and bacterial cells. In plant cells the cell wall is made of
cellulose
Single DNA Loop
In prokaryotic cells (bacteria) the DNA is found as a single loop
Plasmid
A small ring of DNA found in prokaryotic cells (bacteria)
Mitochondria
This is where respiration happens in cells which gives the cells energy
