Cells

All living things are made up of . There are two main categories of cell:

Animal Cells

Animal cells are generally in shape and contain:

Plant Cells

Plant cells are generally in shape and contain:

Functions of the parts

Each part of the cell has its own function (job) to do:

Part of cell Function

Contains genetic material which controls the activities of the cell

Where most of the chemical reactions take place

Controls the passage of substances in and out of the cell

Where most energy is released through

Where protein synthesis (making) occurs

Only found in a plant cell:

Strengthens the cell and helps give it shape

Absorbs light energy to make food through

Filled with cell sap

Putting it all together

Groups of like cells form . Different types of working together form . Different working together form and different working together form .
