The document describes the main parts of an animal cell including the cell membrane, endoplasmic reticulum, nucleus, ribosomes, Golgi bodies, mitochondria, lysosomes, nuclear membrane, and vacuole. It notes that plant cells contain chloroplasts and a cell wall, which animal cells do not have. The chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis by converting sunlight into food using chlorophyll.

3. Cell Membrane It protects the cell. Back

4. Endoplasmic Recticulum Materials like energy are moved through this part. Back

5. Nucleus Controls all actions of a cell Back

6. Ribosomes Produces protein for cell. Back

7. Golgi Bodies Sends and receives messages throughout the cell. Back

8. Mitochondria Creates energy for the cell. Back

9. Lysosomes Breaks down food and old organelles Back

10. Nuclear Membrane Protects the nucleus. Back

11. Vacuole Stores food and waste. Back

12. What two things does a plant cell have that an animal cell does not? Chloroplasts Cell Wall Back

13. Chloroplasts Turns the sun into food. Produces chlorophyll. (makes plant green) Photosynthesis take place in this area. Back

14. Cell Wall Protects the cell and gives it rigidness. Back
