Parts of a Cell by Daisy Lowther https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52 We will be learning about two common cells and some organelles of cells. en-us 2022-09-10 21:41:56 UTC 2022-09-11 00:53:22 UTC hello@padlet.com Plant Cell dlowther4913 https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290864852 2022-09-10 22:05:15 UTC https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290864852 Animal Cell dlowther4913 https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290865939 2022-09-10 22:09:02 UTC https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290865939 The Mitochondria dlowther4913 https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290869214 2022-09-10 22:20:21 UTC https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290869214 A cell is a basic unit of an organism. There are different parts of a cell that help is function and grow into other cells. These parts/structures are called organelles. dlowther4913 https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290873153 2022-09-10 22:34:32 UTC https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290873153 But, the first thing we are going to discuss is the Nucleus. The nucleus basically the brain or the control center of the cell. It controls what is taking place within the cell. dlowther4913 https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290873242 2022-09-10 22:34:52 UTC https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290873242 Next is the mitochondria. THIS IS THE POWERHOUSE OF THE CELL. The mitochondria helps turn the nutrients from the cell into energy. If you must remember any of these things, you've got to remember the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell. dlowther4913 https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290874062 2022-09-10 22:38:23 UTC https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290874062 After the mitochondria, we are going to discuss the cell membrane. The cell membrane deciphers what materials come in and out of the cell. It lets waste exit, and nutrients enter the cell body. This is the outermost layer of the animal cell. dlowther4913 https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290874920 2022-09-10 22:42:01 UTC https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290874920 There are two different types of cells: animal cells and plant cells. A plant cell has two more organelles: the cell wall and cellulose. dlowther4913 https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290876857 2022-09-10 22:50:27 UTC https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290876857 Now back to plant the cell wall and chloroplasts. The cell wall is only in plant cells. These are the support structures of the cell itself. dlowther4913 https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290878793 2022-09-10 22:58:02 UTC https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290878793 Now chloroplasts are compartments filled with chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is absorbs the sunlight and uses the energy in order to create glucose. The chlorophyll is also what makes the leaves green in the spring/summer. dlowther4913 https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290883682 2022-09-11 00:53:09 UTC https://padlet.com/dlowther4913/8a3lmf6wgsa3mn52/wish/2290883682
