Apuntes

• Main Subtopic: Parts of a Plant Cell Sap vacuole Cell wall Chloroplast Mitochondria The cell membrane Cytoplasm Nucleus Chloroplasts These structures are responsible for controlling what goes in and out of the cell and for the activities of the cell. • Subtopic: Function of Cell Components **Cell wall:** It holds the plant cell from external substances and provides support to maintain the cell's shape. **Cell membrane:** All cells have a cell membrane. It is very thin and flexible, like a thin bag or soap bubble. It lies along the inner edge of the cell wall. The cell membrane controls what enters and exits the cell. **Cytoplasm:** The cytoplasm contains the components that regulate what causes in and out of the cell, including nutrients and waste. **Nucleus:** The nucleus acts as the control center of the cell, overseeing all activities. **Mitochondria:** Most cells have mitochondria, which are responsible for producing energy and controlling cell activities. **Chloroplasts:** Plant cells exposed to sunlight often contain chloroplasts, which are essential for photosynthesis. **Chloroplast:** (Note: This appears to be a repetition of chloropl...
