Description and Tags

19 Terms

1

Nucleus

Contains DNA and Nucleois

New cards
2

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

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

New cards
3

Smooth ER

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

New cards
4

Golgi Apparatus

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

New cards
5

Vesicles

small organelle that contains and transports materials within the cytoplasm.

New cards
6

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.

New cards
7

Mitochondria

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

New cards
8

Chloroplast

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

New cards
9

central vacuole

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

New cards
10

Cytoskeleton- Not an organelle

Helps maintain shape. In Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic cells

New cards
11

Centrioles

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

New cards
12

centrosome

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

New cards
13

Cilia and Flagella

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

New cards
14

Ribosomes

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

New cards
15

DNA

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

New cards
16

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.

New cards
17

Cytoplasm

jellylike substance inside cells. In Pro and EUka

New cards
18

Plantal

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

New cards
19

Seperates them

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