Cytoplasm
Fluid substance where all cellular processes occur
Ribosomes
Site of protein synthesis
Free floating proteins
Cell wall
Provides shape + support to cell
Protection from environment
Plasma membrane
Surrounds cytoplasm and regulates entry + exit
Prokaryotic Cells
unicellular microorganisms that lacks a distinct nucleus and membrane-bound organelles and that are classified as a Kingdom Monera
Has free floating genetic material
Prokaryote
Has no nucleus
Prokaryote
Has no membrane
Prokaryote
Has very few organelles
Prokaryote
Is a one celled organism
Prokaryote
Has genetic material in the nucleus
Eukaryote
Has a nucleus
Eukaryote
Organelles have Membrane bound organelles
Eukaryote
Plants and Animals
Eukaryote
Bacteria
Prokaryote
Cytoplasm
"Jelly" substance that holds all of the organelles in the cell.
Lysosome
"Clean-up-crew"
Helps digest food and break down food in the cell.
Vacuole
"The storage unit/water sac"
Stores water, nutrients, and waste in the cell.
Mitochondria
The part of the cell that gets energy from food to make ATP.
"The powerhouse"
Golgi Complex
"UPS"
Packages and ships materials to different locations inside/outside of the cell.
Ribosomes
"Building blocks" of the cell that makes proteins.
Endoplasmic Reticulum
"The highway system" that helps transport things out of the cell.
Nucleolus
"The Mini Control Center" produces ribosomes.
Nucleus
"The control system" where the DNA is held. The brain of the cell.
Cell membrane
The barrier of the cell that helps control what goes in and out of the cell.
Cell Membrane
Semi-permeable layer surrounding ALL cells. Determines what can enter/leave
Nucleus
"Brain of the cell"; holds the cell's DNA in eukaryotes only
Nucleolus
In innermost core of the nucleus. Makes ribosomes
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
Covered in ribosomes; helps with the processing and transport of proteins
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
Does NOT have ribosomes; Makes lipids and detoxifies drugs and chemicals.
Golgi Body (apparatus or complex)
Packages and ships proteins for movement out of the cell. Looks like a stack of wonky pancakes.
Ribosomes
Makes proteins for the cell
Mitochondria
Powerhouse of the cell; breaks down sugar to provide the cell with energy
Lysosomes
Cell's recycling center. Destroys all unwanted material from the cells, including dead cell parts.
Eukaryote
A cell that has a nucleus.
Prokaryote
Smallest and simplest type of cell; lacks a nucleus and membrane bound organelles.
lysosomes
cell organelle filled with enzymes needed to break down and recycle certain materials in the cell
ribosomes
Makes proteins
produced in the nucleolus
found in the cytoplasm and rough ER
Organelle
specialized structure that performs important cellular functions within a eukaryotic cell
"small organ"
