CELLS- Pretty much everything is made out of cells! A cell is a
microscopic structure that is the basic structural unit of
organisms.
- Cells come in all shapes. Depending from where they
are from, for example: red blood cells are round and look
like dounuts on the other hand plants cells from plants
are more square shaped.
- Cells are like mini organisms themselves. This is because
they have things inside them called organelles.
1) cytoskeleton- A protein chain that criss- crosses the
whole cell serving a wide-range of functions.
2) nucleus- its the motherboard of the cell. It tells the
cell what to do and also stores the DNA.
3) endoplasmic reticulum(ER)- it produces protein
and lipids and sometimes has ribosomes attached.
4) ribosome- bean-shaped organelles that make proteins.
5) Golgi- apparatus- it packages products from the ER
and the ribosomes and sends them out of the cell.
6) vesicle- small membrane- bound sacs that divide
materials
7) mitochondrion- the power house of the cell, it
transforms sugar to ATP, which is a type of energy cells
need
8) vacuole- storage for the cell that contains any material that
the cell might need later on.
9) lysosomes- a organelle that contains enzymes to defend
the cell from bacteria and viruses.
10) centriole- assistance when the cell divides
11) cell wall- a wall that give plant cells protection, support, and
shape to the cell.
12) chloroplasts- to make photosynthesis happen.
