cell membrane
regulates materials leaving and entering the cell, protects the cell
nucleus
contains DNA
vacuoles/vesticles
store materials (salts, fats, carbohydrates)
lysosomes
break down and recycle macromolecules
cytoskeleton
maintains cell shape, moves cell parts, helps cells move`
centrioles
organize cell division

synthesize proteins
rough ER
synthesizes proteins and transports them
smooth ER
contains enzymes that preform specific tasks, transports materials
golgi apparatus
modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids for storage or transport out of the cell
chloroplasts
convert solar energy to chemical energy stored in food

cell membrane
both, prokaryote
lipid bilayer
gives cell membranes its flexible structure that forms a strong barrier between the cell and its surroundings
selectively permeable
some substances can pass across them and others cannot
cytoplasm
portion of the cell outside the nucleus
organelles
cell structures that act like organs in the body
cell theory
1-all living things are made up of cells
2-cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things
3-new cells produced from existing cells
diffusion
the process by which particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration to an area of lower concentration
facilitated diffusion
molecules that cannot directly diffuse across the membrane pass through special protein channels
aquaporins
water channel proteins that allow water to pass right through them
osmosis
diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane
isotonic
solutions on both sides of the membrane are equal
hypertonic
higher solute rate inside than out
hypotonic
higher solute rate outside than inside
osmotic pressure
the net movement of water out of or into a cell produces this force
homeostasis
relatively constant internal physical and chemical condition
receptor
a part of the cell that receives cellular signals from neighboring cells
