1
New cards

Nucleus

Contains DNA and Nucleois

2
New cards

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

parts of the endoplasmic reticulum to which ribosomes are attached and proteins are made

3
New cards

Smooth ER

part of the endoplasmic reticulum which does NOT have ribosomes attached, hence it is smooth. Makes lipids.

4
New cards

Golgi Apparatus

stack of flat, membrane-enclosed spaces containing enzymes that process, sort, and deliver proteins

5
New cards

Vesicles

small organelle that contains and transports materials within the cytoplasm.

6
New cards

Lysosome

sacs bounded by a single membrane, they contain and transport digestive enzymes. They digest excess or worn-out organelles, food particles, and engulfed viruses or bacteria. Like the stomach of the cell.

7
New cards

Mitochondria

bean-shaped organelle that supplies energy to the cell during cellular respiration

8
New cards

Chloroplast

organelle in plants used to convert solar energy into chemical energy (photosynthesis) contains chlorophyll.

9
New cards

central vacuole

contains water to maintain the proper pressure within the plant cells to provide structure and support for the growing plant

10
New cards

Cytoskeleton- Not an organelle

Helps maintain shape. In Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic cells

11
New cards

Centrioles

Cylindrical organelles associated with cell division. They are composed of microtubules. 2 of them make the centrosome.

12
New cards

centrosome

Organelles made up of a pair of centrioles. It organizes the microtubules during cell division.

13
New cards

Cilia and Flagella

hairlike structures that extend from the surface of the cell, where they assist in movement

14
New cards

Ribosomes

organelle that creates proteins during protein synthesis. In Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cells.

15
New cards

DNA

a self-replicating material that is present in nearly all living organisms. . In Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cells.

16
New cards

Cell Membrane

double-layer of phospholipids that forms a boundary between a cell and the surrounding environment and controls the passage of materials into and out of a cell. In prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

17
New cards

Cytoplasm

jellylike substance inside cells. In Pro and EUka

18
New cards

Plantal

-all multicellular eukaryotes with a cellulose cell wall
-all autotrophs and feed most heterotrophs
-vital to all living organisms

19
New cards

Seperates them

What does the cell membrane do to to the cells from the outside?
