Below are some of the most important parts of a plant cell:
Cell Membrane: it's a thin layer that surrounds the cell.
Cell Wall: a hard layer that surrounds the cell membrane.
Nucleus: a dark structure inside the cell that controls the cell's activities. it's like the brain
of a cell.
Chlorophyll: a green substance in plant cells that helps to make food.
Chloroplast: a cell structure in which photosynthesis takes place, and it contains the chloropyll.
Cytoplasm: a sticky liquid in cells where activities take place.
Amyloplast: an organelle in some plant cells that stores starch. Amyloplasts are found in starchy plants
like tubers and fruits.
ATP: ATP is short for adenosine triphosphate; it is a high-energy molecule used for energy storage by
organisms.
These are the parts of a animal cell:
Cell membrane: the thin layer of protein and fat that surrounds the cell.
Centrosome: a small body located near the nucleus. it has a dense center and radiating tubules. The
centrosomes is where microtubules are made.
Cytoplasm: the jellylike material outside the cell nucleus in which the organelles are located.
Golgi
body: It produces the membranes that surround the lysosomes. The Golgi body packages proteins and carbohydrates into
membrane-bound vesicles for "export" from the cell.
Vacuole: fluid-filled, membrane-surrounded cavities inside a cell. The vacuole fills with food being
digested and waste material that is on its way out of the cell.
Lysosome: round organelles surrounded
by a membrane and containing digestive enzymes. This is where the digestion of cell nutrients takes place.
Mitochondrion: spherical to rod-shaped organelles with a double membrane. The mitochondrion converts
the energy stored in glucose into ATP (adenosine triphosphate) for the cell.
Nuclear membrane: the membrane that surrounds the nucleus.
Nucleolus: an organelle
within the nucleus - it is where ribosomal RNA is produced.
Nucleus: spherical body containing many organelles, including the nucleolus. The nucleus controls many
of the functions of the cell.
Ribosome: small organelles composed of RNA-rich cytoplasmic granules that are sites of protein synthesis.
