Ribosomes
|
Structures found on rough ER (some are free floating) that assemble proteins.
|
|
Vesicle
|
Are small vacuoles used to transport materials.
|
|
Vacuoles
|
A membrane enclosed structure that is usually filled with water and chemicals.

|
Necleolus
|
The dark spherical are of the nucleus; aids in the production of rRNA (ribosomal RNA) a structural component of the ribosomes.

|
Poysomes
|
Strings of ribosomes stimultaneously translating regions of the same mRNA strand during protein synthesis; also called polyribosome.

|
Chromatin
|
(Chromosomes/DNA) Chromatin when uncoiled; long strands of DNA found within the nucleus of a cell.
|
|
Cell Wall
|
Outer layer of plant cells that supports and protects the cell.

Matrix
|
The inner fluid space in the mitochandria; contains DNA, ribosomes, and enzymes that break down carbohydrates to provide energy needed to produce ATP during cellular respiration.
|
|
