Cytology Concept Map
Cells found in heterotrophic organisms are known as...
Animal Cells
...which perform many cellular processes to survive, examples include (but are most CERTAINLY not limited to)...
Apoptosis
Apoptosis is the process of programmed cell death. It is used during early embryonic development (e.g., to shape our fingers), as well as to kill unwanted cells (e.g., cancer cells) and damaged cells in the body that are beyond repair. Apoptosis begins when organelles filled with hydrolytic enzymes known as...
Lysosomes
**Lysosomes can break down any waste particles or old cell parts that are already inside the cell
...bursts, and releases its digestive contents into the jelly-like fluid full of nutrients / waste that fills the entire cell called the...
Cytosol (A.K.A., the Intracellular Fluid - ICF)
The digestive contents of the lysosome that are now in the cytosol begin destroying the cell by targeting the ATP energy producers of the cell, otherwise known as the...

Protein Synthesis
...the first step, transcription, begins in a spherical structure towards the centre of the cell called the...
Nucleus
...that safely stores genetic information (containing instructions to make the two million different proteins in the human body) that cannot leave the nucleus known as...
Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA)
...which is comprised of sections of instructions for the different functions and processes of the body, called...

...which can be stored / moved around throughout the cell to fuel many cellular processes, which includes a process that makes proteins called...
Cells found in photosynthetic / autotrophic organisms are classified as...
Plant Cells
...which uniquely contain a small group of double-membrane organelles with their own independent DNA and ribosomes called...
Plastids
...examples in which include...
Chloroplasts
...filled with very important green-coloured pigments referred to as...
Chlorophyll
...which absorbs / captures solar energy emitted from the Sun to help power a vital cellular process in plant cells called...

Amyloplasts - store and break down starches. Most abundant in tubers (potatoes) and seeds.
Chromoplasts - store coloured pigments (called carotenoid pigments) that give plants (e.g., fruits, vegetables, and flowers) their colours.
...which are surrounded by a rigid, external layer outside the cell membrane that supports the cell with shape, strength, and protection, known as...
Cell wall
Additional Info:
Made up of cellulose microfibrils; prevents water loss; controls cell expansion from water intake.

**These processes also take place in plant cells, but some in slightly different ways!
