Gizmo- Cell Structure KEY Takeaways

• Cells = basic unit of life (made up of atoms/molecules)

• 2 groups of cells: Prokaryote (NO nucleus) and Eukaryote (nucleus)• Bacteria = Prokaryote

• Protists, Fungi, Plant, and Animals = Eukaryote

• Plant Cells vs Animal Cells• Plant cells have 3 things that animal cells do not:

1. Chloroplasts (photosynthesis – produces food from sun, CO2 & H2O)

2. cell walls (structural support)

3. larger vacuoles (increased volume for water storage)
