lysosome
clean out old organelles in the cell (suicide sac)
mitochondria
powerhouse of the cell, breaks down glucose to make ATP
chloroplast
this organelle is green and allows photosynthesis in plants
cell membrane
this structure is made of phospholipids and controls what can get in and out of the cell
cell wall
this organelle is found in plant cells and is made out of cellulose, it provides support and protection fro the cell
microtubules
long robes made of protein that help give a cell support and allow movement
flagellum
9+2 arrangement, cell movement
rough er
has ribosomes and makes proteins
smooth er
detoxifies and makes lipids
golgi body
like the UPS, modifies proteins, tags, and ships
microfilaments
thin molecules important for muscle movement and protection from cell tensions
centrosomes
region where microtubules have originated
peroxisomes
organelle produces H2O2 in the process of fatty acid breakdown
plasmodesmata
plumbing between plant cells
centriole
found in animal cells, composed of two bundles of microtubules. some believe they are involved in cell replication
integral protein
passes through phospholipid bilayer, may aid movement of large molecules
collagen
tough abundant protein in the ECM of animal cells
desmosome
keratin rivets that lock animal cells together
proteoglycan complex
molecules made of protein and carbs used for identification (communication) in animal cells
nucleus
where DNA is, this organelle controls the cell functions
gap junctions
works like plasmodesmata but in animal cells
central vacuole
large enveloped membrane containing water, allows turgor pressure to be maintained for plants
cell membrane
allows only certain things in the cell, encloses the cell
cytoskeleton
reinforce cell shape + movement, made of microtubules, filaments + intermediate fibers
nucleolus
dark spot where ribosomes produced
chromatin
regulates gene expression and prevents dna damage
nuclear membrane
controls what goes in and out of the cell
intermediate fibers
structural support and maintain shape
microvilli
increase surface area to enhance absorption and secretion
tonoplast
membrane enclosing central vacuole, limits in and out
vesicles
transports + digests, comes from the golgi
cillia
movement 9+2 arrangements
pseudopoda
false foot, movement
tight junctions
seal, store, leakage
fibronectin
attach microfilaments, communication
phospholipid membrane
barrier, limits in and out
