New cards

cytoplasm

_____ is the watery inside the cell along with all its compartments and organelles

2
New cards

organelles

____ are membrane-enclosed bodies within the cell, each performs a unique function

3
New cards

cytosol

_____ is the jellylike substance within the cell that provides the fluid medium necessary for biochemical reactions and functions of the cell

4
New cards

nucleus

____ contains the cell’s DNA inside of a membrane

5
New cards

ER, golgi apparatus, and vesicles

these 3 are the members of the endomembrane system

6
New cards

phospholipids

____ is the main component of biological membranes

7
New cards

rough ER

ER that is studded with ribosomes

8
New cards

smooth ER

____ lacks ribosome and its main function is to lipid synthesis and also functions as storage closet in some cells

9
New cards

metabolizing some carbohydrates and breaking down certain toxins

another function of smooth ER is ______

10
New cards

liver cells

an example organ cell which contain lots of smooth ER is ____

11
New cards

translation

in rough ER, the main function is the synthesizing of protein, which is called ____

12
New cards

golgi apparatus

___ functions is for sorting, modifying, and shipping off the products that come from the rough ER

13
New cards

golgi apparatus

____ is an organelle that looks like a stacked flattened discs, almost like a stack of thin pancakes

14
New cards

detoxification

another important function of the cell is ____

15
New cards

hepatocytes

cells called ____ in the liver detoxify many of these toxins

16
New cards

phagocytic

_____ immune cells have many more lysosomes than other cells

17
New cards

suicide bag

lysosome aka ____

18
New cards

autolysis

the self-destruct mechanism of the lysosome is called ___

19
New cards

apoptosis

autolysis is one form of ____ which is the purposeful cellular death

20
New cards

peroxisome

_____ is a membrane-bound organelle that contains mostly enzymes

21
New cards

smooth ER

the peroxisome function most similarly to ____ because they perform both lipid metabolism and chemical detoxification

22
New cards

hydrogen peroxide

enzymes in peroxisome serve to transfer hydrogen atoms from various molecules to oxygen, producing ____

23
New cards

neutralizes, alcohol

in producing hydrogen peroxide, peroxisome ____ poisons such as ___

24
New cards

liver, liver cells

the ___ is the one responsible for detoxifying the blood before it travels in the body, and ____ contain and exceptionally high number of peroxisome

25
New cards
26
New cards

to break down

lys means

27
New cards

mitochondrion

____ is an organelle called as “energy transformer” consists of two lipid bilayers

28
New cards

cristae

the folds of the inner membrane are called ____

29
New cards

cytoskeleton

______ is made up of fibrous proteins that provide structural support for cells

30
New cards

microtubules

____ helps maintain the cell’s shape and structure, also provide tracks along which vesicles and genetic material can pulled within cells

31
New cards

intermediate filaments

_____ filament is a filament in thickness between the microtubules and microfilaments

32
New cards

microfilament

____ the thinner of cytoskeletal filaments compose primarily of the protein actin

33
New cards

microvilli

____ are tiny and numerous projections on the surface of cells that serve a function of expanding surface area

34
New cards

incapable

microvilli are associated with microfilaments but are _____ of movement, more on expanding the surface

35
New cards

flagellum

____ is an appendage larger than a cilium and specialized for cell locomotion
