The Organelles of the Plant Cell Warm Up
Watch the video on the organelles or parts of the
plant cell.
Then, write down 5 new things you learned about the
parts of the cell from watching this video.
Make sure your heading and title is on your paper. If
not, no grade will be given for your assignment.
The Organelles of Plants Definitions
1. Chromatin: combination of DNA and proteins that
make up the nucleus of a plant cell because this
organelle regulates the plant.
2. Chloroplast: organelle that conducts photosynthesis
and captures the light energy for this synthesis chemical
reaction.
3. Mitochondrion: major producers of ATP because this
molecule is the energy that plants get from the glucose
they make
4. Cell Wall: is similar to the skeletal system that the
members of the animal kingdom have because this
organelle provides shape, structure, and support for the
plant
5. Plasma Membrane: is also called the cell membrane
because this organelle is selectively permeable by only
letting certain things permeate or move in and out of the
plant cell.
6. Vacuole: is the largest organelle in the plant cell
because this is important for storing water and other
materials necessary for the plant to survive.
Plant and Animal Cell Comparison
Although plant and animal cells are both considered to
be cells, both of them have properties that they don’t
share.
Plant cells have the cell wall, chloroplast, and vacuole
organelles that animal cells don’t have because they
don’t need them to survive.
Creative Definitions for Plant Organelles
Create 6 divisions on your paper
In each box, write the name of the organelle, a shorter
version of the definition, and then a creative example or
illustration great for memorizing this organelle’s
definition.
