The mitochondria generates energy for the cell, which is stored as ATP. It is commonly known as the "powerhouse of the cell."

The mitochondria is found in both plant and animal cells of Eukaryote cells. It can also be found in prokaryotic cells.

The mitochondria is like a powerplant in a city, because it produces ATP, similar to how a power plant produces energy for a city.

9:42 PM

The nucleolus is located inside of a nucleus and produces ribosomes, which help to create amino acids and proteins.

The nucleolus is found in eukaryotic cells. It can be found in both plant and animal cells.

The nucleolus is like a blueprint. It produces ribosomes, which later form amino acids and proteins.

9:42 PM

The cell membrane is a semi-permeable barrier that controls which materials enter and exit the cell.

The mitochondria is found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. It can be found in both plant and animal cells.

The mitochondria is like a powerplant in a city, because it produces ATP, similar to how a power plant produces energy for a city.

9:42 PM

The nucleus contains chromosomes, which have the genetic material of the cell.

The nucleus is only found in eukaryotic cells, and is found in both plant and animal cells.

The nucleus is like a command center. It contains the cell's DNA and controls the cell's activities, similar to a control center.

9:42 PM

The cytoplasm is the jelly-like substance that is contained inside a cell.

The cytoplasm can be found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, as well as in both plant and animal cells.

The cytoplasm is like a workbench because it serves as a space for the processes of a cell to occur.

9:42 PM

The vacuole serves as a storage area for waste, nutrients, and water.

The vacuole is found in prokaryotic cells, eukaryotic cells, plant cells, and animal cells.

The vacuole is like a closet because it stores waste, nutrients and water, similar to how a closet stores clothes and supplies.

9:42 PM

Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes to break down and recycle excess parts.

Lysosomes are found in both the plant and the animal cells of eukaryotic cells.

Lysosomes are like recycling centers because they break down waste materials and recycle them.

9:42 PM

The cell wall serves as structure and protection for the cell.

The cell wall is found in prokaryotic cells and only found in the plant cells of eukaryotes.

The cell wall is like a brick wall because it provides protection to the cell.

9:42 PM

Chloroplasts use energy from the sun to enable a plant to go through photosynthesis.

Chloroplasts are only found in eukaryotic plant cells.

Chloroplasts are like solar panels because they convert sunlight into energy.

9:42 PM

The cytoskeleten helps with movement and gives the cell structure. It also aids in transport within the cell.

The cytoskeleton is found in prokaryotic, eukaryotic, plant cells, and animal cells.

The cytoskeleton is like the framework of a building because it provides support and structure to a cell.

9:42 PM

The golgi apparatus packages and distributes proteins and lipids for use in the cell.

The golgi apparatus is found in both plant and animal cells of eukaryotic cells.

The golgi apparatus is like a postal service because it packages and distributes proteins and lipids, similar to how a postal service packs and sends mail.

9:42 PM

Ribosomes turn genetic material into amino acids, which then become proteins.

Ribosomes are found in both plant and animal cells in eukaryotic cells.

Ribosomes are like assembly line workers because they turn genetic material into amino acids based on its "blueprint."

9:42 PM

The rough endoplasmic reticulum is covered with ribosomes. Its function is the synthesis and transport of proteins throughout the cell.

The rough endoplasmic reticulum is found in both plant and animal cells of eukaryotic cells.

The rough endoplasmic reticulum is like a factory because it is covered with ribosomes, which create proteins, and it transports these proteins.

9:42 PM

The smooth endoplasmic reticulum helps with the synthesis of lipids and detoxification of harmful substances.

The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is found in both the plant and animal cells of eukaryotic cells.

The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is like a chemical lab because it detoxifies harmful substances,
