|
Nucleus |
Controls everything, Contains DNA, in the middle of the cell |
|
|
Nuclear Membrane |
Contains pores, surrounds the membrane |
|
|
Nucleolus |
In the middle of nucleus, makes ribosomes, makes RNA |
|
|
Mitochondria |
ATP/Energy, Floating around the cell |
|
|
Vacuole |
Spaces in cytoplasm, storage |
|
|
Lysosomes |
"Suicide Sacs", breaks down worn out cells, floating around cytoplasm, looks like vacuole but with enzymes |
|
|
Ribosomes |
Where proteins [amino acids] are made, scattered in cytoplasm and rough ER |
|
|
Rough ER |
Contains ribosomes and proteins, almost surrounding nucleus partially |
|
|
Smooth ER |
No ribosomes, contains lipids, floating around cytoplasm |
|
|
Golgi Complex |
AKA: Golgi Body, Golgi Apparatus. Modifies substances, shaped like pancakes |
|
|
Centrioles |
Found in animal cells only, cell division, perpendicular lines near nucleus |
|
|
Chloroplasts |
Plant cells only, photosynthesis--light, green pigment, dots in cytoplasm |
|
|
Cell Wall |
Plant cells only, shape, structure, made from cellulose |
|
|
Cell Membrane |
Semi-permeable, inside of cell wall in plant cells |
|
|
Cytoplasm |
Mostly water, holds everything in place, jelly-ish |
|
|
Prokaryotic Cells |
No nucleus, no organelles with membrane, bacteria cells |
|
|
Eukaryotic Cells |
Nucleus, contain organelles with membranes, animal and plant cells |
|
|
Cell Theory |
All living things are made of cells, cells are made by pre-existing cells, cells are the basic unit of structure and function |
