"The Cell Wall is a rigid multi-layered structure found in plant and bacterial cells, designed to hold the cells together and protect the cell from injury." |
|
"Ribosomes are tiny, dense organelles found in blood and are where DNA is translated into protein." |
 |
"Cytoplasm is a jelly-like material that is eighty percent water and usually clear in color. It is the substance that fills the cell." |
 |
"Plastids are cells that store specific things. They are large cytoplasmic organelles found in the cells of most plants." |
 |
"Mitochondria are the largest organelles in the cytoplasm. They break down carbohydrates and sugars, making energy from the food we eat." |
 |
"Lysosomes are the disposal and recycling units of the cell. They contain the enzymes necessary for digesting certain material in a cell." |
 |
"The Endoplasmic Reticulum is a network of folded membranes that form channels from the cell membrane through the cytoplasm to the nuclear membrane." |
 |
"The Nucleus is the center of the cell. It is the control center for all cell functions. It controls growth and cell division." |
 |
"The Centrioles are nine sets of three fused microtubles arranged in an open star shape and located just outside of the nucleus." |
| Plan Ahead... After finishing their cell presentations, the "BioPoint" students will be creating "Cell Journals." Look for them online in January. |
