The Nucleus
- found only in eukaryotic cells
- contains most of the genetic material for the cell
Nuclear Envelope: double membrane that surrounds the nucleus; controls what goes in and out - gate
Chromosomes: strands of DNA wrapped around protiens; found inside nucleus
Nucleolus: produces ribosomes; found inside the nucleus
Differences Between Plant and Animal Cells
- Plant cells have a large central vacuole that
- holds water, nutrients and wastes
- can make up to 90% of the cell's volume
- Plant cells have a cell wall that give the cell support and protection
- Plant cells contain plastids
- chloroplasts used in photosynthesis
- leucoplasts that store fat and oil
- chromosplasts that give some flowers and fruits their yellow, orange or red color
