What
makes a cell?
A cell is a living thing.
Cells are able to make more cells like
themselves.
Interesting fact! New cells can
only come from existing cells (cells
that are already made).
Oh yea! Some
HISTORY for you

terms/Structures
Cell membrane: The cell
membrane surrounds the cell.
Think of the membrane as a
gatekeeper, it only allows some
materials to pass through, but keeps
others out.
Cytoplasm: This is a gel-like fluid,
that takes up most of the space inside
a cell.
Cytoplasm kind of looks like jell-o.
Terms/Structures continued
Nucleus: The nucleus is a structure
usually located near the center of the cell.
The nucleus is a home to the cells
chromosomes. What are
chromosomes you ask?
Chromosomes: They are genetic
structures that contain information to
make new cells. Basically, the instructions
for how to make new cells.

Nuclear membrane: This
surrounds and protects the nucleus. The
nucleus has its own protector.
Nucleolus: This structure is found
inside the nucleus. It is responsible for
making ribosomes. We will get to this
term in a bit. Thanks for your patience!

Endoplasmic
reticulum and
plas-mic ri-tic-eww-lum.
Now say it 5 times fast.no just kidding!
These 2 structures work together
producing important products for the cell.
Think of the endoplasmic reticulum as a
mailman, delivering things throughout
the cell.

we go again!
Plants cells have all of the structures
that animal cells do. But they also
have some structures that the animal
cell does not.
Plant cells have a cell wall and
chloroplasts.
