Main subcellular structures of an animal cell - Nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane,
mitochondria, ribosomes
Main subcellular structures of a plant cell - Cell wall, chloroplasts, permanent vacuole,
nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, mitochondria, ribosomes
Structures only found in plant cells - Cell wall, chloroplasts, permanent vacuole
Function of the nucleus - Contains genetic material that controls cell activity
Function of the cytoplasm - Where most chemical reactions happen
Function of the mitochondria - Where aerobic respiration takes place
Function of the ribosomes - Where protein synthesis occurs
Function of the cell membrane - Controls the movement of substances in and out of the
cell
Function of the cell wall - Strengthens the cell and provides support (made of cellulose in
plants)
Function of the vacuole - Contains cell sap and helps maintain internal pressure
Function of chloroplasts - Contain chlorophyll to absorb light for photosynthesis
Eukaryotic cells - Complex cells with a nucleus (e.g., plant and animal cells)
Prokaryotic cells - Simple cells with no nucleus (e.g., bacterial cells)
Differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells - Prokaryotes have no nucleus, have
smaller ribosomes, and may have plasmids
