|
Microtubules
|
1. Microtubules – long, hollow protein cylinders that form a rigid skeleton for the cell and assist in moving substances within a cell
|
|
|
Microfilaments
|
2. Microfilaments are thin protein threads that gives cells shape and enable the entire cell or parts of cell to move
|
|
|
Rough endoplasmic reticulum
|
3. Rough endoplasmic reticulum has ribosome’s attached, produces protein for export to other cells
|
|
|
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
|
4. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum has no ribosome’s attached, produces complex carbohydrates and lipids
I. Smooth ER in liver detoxifies harmful substances |
|
|
Nucleus
|
5. Nucleus directs cell processes; contains the cell’s DNA; stores information for cell growth, function and reproduction
|
|
|
Nuclear envelope
|
6. Nuclear envelope is a double membrane that surrounds the nucleus
|
|
|
Ribosomes
|
7. Ribosome’s help manufacture proteins
|
|
|
Nucleolus
|
8. Nucleolus produces ribosomes inside the nucleus
|
|
|
Endoplasmic reticulum
|
9. Endoplasmic reticulum is the site or ribosome attachment; can be smooth or rough
|
|
|
Golgi apparatus
|
10. Golgi apparatus modifies, sorts and packages proteins for transport outside the cell
|
|
|
Vacuole
|
11. Vacuole is a membrane-bound storage area within the cell
|
|
|
Lysosome
|
12. Lysosome are vesicles that contains substances or digest excess or worn-out organelles
|
|
|
Centrioles
|
13. Centrioles are structures near the nucleus that function during cell division
|
|
|
Mitochondrion
|
14. Mitochondrion converts fuel particles (sugars) into useable energy
|
|
|
chloroplasts
|
15. Chloroplasts captures light energy and converts it to chemical energy through photosynthesis
|
|
|
Cell wall
|
16. Cell wall gives support to plant cells
|
|
|
Cillia and Flagella
|
17. Cilia and flagella are projections that allow the cell to move or to move substances along the surface of the cell
|
|
|
Cytoplasm
|
18. Cytoplasm – the semi fluid material inside the organelles or plasma membranes where cell processes occur
|
|
|
Cytoskeleton
|
19. Cytoskeleton is the supporting network of long thin protein fibers forming a framework for the cell + providing anchor for organelles
|
|
|
plastids
|
20. Plastids – storage organelle only found in plants, carry pigments
|
|
|
eukaryotic cells
|
21. Eukaryotic cells contain organelles that allow the specialization and the separation of functions within the cell
|
|
|
prokaryotic cells
|
22. In prokaryotic cells are chemical processes that take place in the cytoplasm
|
|
|
plasma membrane
|
23. Plasma membrane is the special boundary that helps control what enters and leaves the cell
|
