1
New cards

rough ER

makes protein and transports them for export

2
New cards

smooth ER

lacks ribosomes on surface, makes andd transports lipids and sterols

3
New cards

ribosomes

functions in protein synthesis -> proteins play a role in many diseases

4
New cards

golgi

package secretions - proteins, etc. can modify secretions -> necessary for systems to work together to maintain homeostasis -> makes lysosomes

5
New cards

centriols

functional role during cell reproduction-forms a spindle aids in chromosome separation -> only functions during cell reproduction -> can replicate

6
New cards

peroxisomes

use oxygen to detoxify substances - found in liver

7
New cards

lysosomes

breaks down and reuses cell parts -> numerous in white blood cells - digest bacteria

8
New cards

mitochondria

where most cell respiration takes place -> makes ATP

9
New cards

vacuole

contains substances we bring into the cell or want to export from the cell -> food, waste, secretion

10
New cards

nucleus

largest organelle in the cell -> contains genetic material

11
New cards

nucleolus

contains a lot of RNA and proteins -> builds ribosomes

12
New cards

nuclear envelope

holes in it so substances can enter and excite -> pores allow mRNA out by DNA is too big to fit through

13
New cards

cytoplasm

made up a fluid portion, cytoskeleton and chemicals -> solutions with dissolves ions

14
New cards

cytoskeleton

made up of microtubles -> supports the cell and holds organelles in place

15
New cards

what do prokaryotes and eukaryotes both have

cell membrane, cytoplasm, ribosomes, DNA as their genetic material, and cytoplasm contains the necessary molecules for cellular processes

16
New cards

what does a prokaryote have that a eukaryote doesn't

less organelles -> no membrane bound organelles (bacteria, archea)

17
New cards

what does a eukaryote have that a prokaryote doesn't

a nucleus, membrane bound organelles, larger volume (protests, algae, fungi, plants, animal)
