-all things are made of cells
-all the processes of life take place in cells (take in oxygen and give off carbon dioxide
-new cells come from existing cells
-contain organelles that perform different functions
-surrounds the plant cell
-protects the cell
-helps cells stick to each other and gives the plant its shape and structure
-due to the cell wall, plant cells have a somewhat rectangular shape
-animals cells do not contain a cell wall so animal cells can take on different shapes
-located underneath the cell wall in plant cells
-surrounds the animal cells
-allows water and nutrients to pass INTO the cell and waste to pass OUT of the cell
-located in the center of the cell and controls the cell's growth
-regulates all of the activity that is happening in the cell
-the "brain" of the cell
-contains the plants'/animals' DNA
-only located in plant cells
-are green because they contain chlorophyll which absorbs and takes energy from the sun
-produces food for the plant using photosynthesis
-animal cells do not contain chloroplast because animals cannot produce their own food through photosynthesis
-jelly-like substance that holds all of the organelles in a plant/animal in their place
-stores food, water, and nutrients that a plant cell needs to survive
