cytoplasm
_____ is the watery inside the cell along with all its compartments and organelles
organelles
____ are membrane-enclosed bodies within the cell, each performs a unique function
cytosol
_____ is the jellylike substance within the cell that provides the fluid medium necessary for biochemical reactions and functions of the cell
nucleus
____ contains the cell’s DNA inside of a membrane
ER, golgi apparatus, and vesicles
these 3 are the members of the endomembrane system
phospholipids
____ is the main component of biological membranes
rough ER
ER that is studded with ribosomes
smooth ER
____ lacks ribosome and its main function is to lipid synthesis and also functions as storage closet in some cells
metabolizing some carbohydrates and breaking down certain toxins
another function of smooth ER is ______
liver cells
an example organ cell which contain lots of smooth ER is ____
translation
in rough ER, the main function is the synthesizing of protein, which is called ____
golgi apparatus
___ functions is for sorting, modifying, and shipping off the products that come from the rough ER
golgi apparatus
____ is an organelle that looks like a stacked flattened discs, almost like a stack of thin pancakes
detoxification
another important function of the cell is ____
hepatocytes
cells called ____ in the liver detoxify many of these toxins
phagocytic
_____ immune cells have many more lysosomes than other cells
suicide bag
lysosome aka ____
autolysis
the self-destruct mechanism of the lysosome is called ___
apoptosis
autolysis is one form of ____ which is the purposeful cellular death
peroxisome
_____ is a membrane-bound organelle that contains mostly enzymes
smooth ER
the peroxisome function most similarly to ____ because they perform both lipid metabolism and chemical detoxification
hydrogen peroxide
enzymes in peroxisome serve to transfer hydrogen atoms from various molecules to oxygen, producing ____
neutralizes, alcohol
in producing hydrogen peroxide, peroxisome ____ poisons such as ___
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
to break down
lys means
mitochondrion
____ is an organelle called as “energy transformer” consists of two lipid bilayers
cristae
the folds of the inner membrane are called ____
cytoskeleton
______ is made up of fibrous proteins that provide structural support for cells
microtubules
____ helps maintain the cell’s shape and structure, also provide tracks along which vesicles and genetic material can pulled within cells
intermediate filaments
_____ filament is a filament in thickness between the microtubules and microfilaments
microfilament
____ the thinner of cytoskeletal filaments compose primarily of the protein actin
microvilli
____ are tiny and numerous projections on the surface of cells that serve a function of expanding surface area
incapable
microvilli are associated with microfilaments but are _____ of movement, more on expanding the surface
flagellum
____ is an appendage larger than a cilium and specialized for cell locomotion
