`Cytoplasm |
Gel like substance in the cell and the organelles within it. |
|
Cell Membrane |
the phospholipid bilayer that covers a cell’s surface and is semipermeable, or selectively controls what can enter and exit |
|
Cell Wall |
surrounds the cell membrane and provides support to the cell; this is the reason plants remain upright and can grow ver |
|
Cytoskeleton |
a web of proteins that helps a cell keep its shape, move in its environment, and move its organelles |
|
Nucleus |
control center of the cell that contains the cell’s DNA and is surrounded by the nuclear envelope |
|
Nucleolus |
inside the nucleus; where RNA and ribosomes are made |
|
Ribosomes |
made of RNA and protein, these are where proteins are made; these are found on the Rough ER or in the cytoplasm |
|
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum |
ribosomes are found here, this organelle helps with protein synthesis |
|
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum |
makes lipids that form protein and breaks down toxins |
|
Mitochondria |
where cellular respiration takes place, which is when sugar is broken down into energy in the form of ATP. They have their own DNA. |
|
Chloroplast |
Where photosynthesis takes place. It contains chlorophyll and has its own DNA. *know structure -thylakoid -grana -stroma |
|
Golgi Body |
modifies, packages, and delivers proteins throughout the cell or out of the cell |
|
Vesicles |
small compartments that transport materials throughout the cell; they are formed from membranes of ER or Golgi Apparatus |
|
Vacuoles |
used for storage (plant cells have one large one) |
|
Thylakoid |
Disc shaped compartments in a chloroplast |
|
Lamellae |
Connects grana |
|
Grana |
Stacks of Thylakoids |
