Cytoplasm
Present in both Animal and Plant Cells
A jelly-like substance that contains many cell parts
Allows substances to move around within the cell
Nucleus
Present in both Animal and Plant Cells
A round or oval cell part inside the cytoplasm
Controls everything that happens inside the cell
Contains information that is passed on from one generation to the next
Cell Membrane
Present in both Animal and Plant Cells
A thin layer that surrounds the Cytoplasm
Controls the movement of materials into or out of the cell
Cell Wall
Present in the Plant Cell
A stiff layer around the Cell Membrane
Supports and gives the Plant Cell its shape
Chloroplast
Present in the Plant Cell
A tiny disc-like cell part that contains a green pigment called chlorophyll
Captures light for plants to make food
