1
New cards
cell wall
-extra barrier made of cellulose
-outside of plant cell
-support
2
New cards
vacuole-
-large and central storage of water
3
New cards
chloroplast
-green cause of chlorophyll
-energy from sun is turned into sugar
4
New cards
microfilaments and microtubules
-form the cytoskeleton (framework) of the animal cell
5
New cards
microfilaments
rod like and provide movement
6
New cards
microtubules
long slender tubes of protiens that provide framework for cell
7
New cards
cilia
short hair like for movement
-made of microtubles
8
New cards
flagella
-long whip like for movement
-made of microtubles
-ony human cell with this is the sperm cell
9
New cards
cell membrane
-semipermeable
-phospholipid bylayar embeded w/ proteins
-protiens act as channels
-contain ID tags
-fluid mosaic model
10
New cards
nucleus
-big large round structure
-surrounded by nuclear envelope
-stains purple usually
-contains nucleus and chromosones
-control center for cell
11
New cards
nucleolus
-small inside nucleus
-makes ribsomes
-has nucleolus plasma (jelly like material)
12
New cards
chromatin
-dna of cell
-function involved with heditary
-blueprint of cell
-chromoson: shortened/condensed/replicated
13
New cards
cytoplasm
-everything in cell membrane beside nucleus
-cytosol: jelly surronding organelle
-organelles are suspended in glytosol
-chemical reaction take place
14
New cards
mitochondria
-bean shaped
-food is converted to energy
-crista: where ATP takes place
15
New cards
ribsome
-smallest, most important
-spherical organelles where protein is synthesized
-located throughout cell rough er
-made of ribosomal rna
16
New cards
rough endoplasmic reticulum
-elongated canal like membrane
-connects nuclear envelope or outside of nucleus
-transports proteins
17
New cards
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
-branching network of tubules
-no ribosomes
-usually connected to rer
-transports lipids
--detoxification of drugs
18
New cards
golgi apparatus
-stacks like pancakes
-secretes and packages
19
New cards
lysosome
-cleans cellular debris
-pinch of golgi
-attach to bacteria cells
-dygestive enzymes
