tough outer covering only found in plant + bacterial cells, protects and gives plant cell straight 3-D edges

control center of a cell, mRNA goes into cytoplasm, contains DNA

Found inside cell, molecule that carries genetic information for the development and functioning of the cell

gel like soup made of protein, amino acids, carbohydrates, and monosaccharides, keeps organelles floating

measurement of cells

contain enzymes which break down substances brought in, white blood cells have lysosomes

The idea that living creatures can from from non living matter (there is no such thing)

Microtubules + microfilaments, help maintain animal cell shapes

Fluid that is in body, found in blood

organize microtubules that serve as the cells skeletal system
