15 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
information storage and processing center containing chromosomes
Nucleus
complex double membrane enclosing nucleus, studded with pore-like openings, inside linked to nuclear lamina.
Nuclear Envelope
fibrous proteins that form a lattice-like sheet that stiffens the structure and maintains shape of nucleus
Nuclear Lamina
where RNA found in ribosomes are manufactured and the large and small ribosomal subunits are assembled
Nucleolus
ribosomes attached to membrane, these ribosomes synthesize proteins
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
interior of a cell; in the rough ER, sac-like structure, location where newly manufactured proteins undergo folding and other processing
Lumen
contains enzymes that catalyze reactions involving lipids, manufacturing site for phospholipids used in plasma membranes
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
cis side receives products from RER, trans side ships them out, finishes processing and packages RERs products for delivery
Golgi Apparatus
flattened, membranous sacs in golgi apparatus
Cisternae
fluid portion of the cytoplasm
Cytosol
globular organelles with single membrane and originate as buds from ER; center for oxidation reactions (removes electrons from atoms and molecules)
Peroxisomes
found in animal cells, digestive center of cell (acidic lumen), contains digestive enzymes called acid hydrolases (break monomers from macromolecules)
Lysosomes
primary center for protein and lipid synthesis and processing, includes lysosomes, golgi apparatus, rough and smooth ER
Endomembrane System
large organelle found in plants, fungi, and certain other groups that lack lysosomes; specialized for cell digestion
Vacuole
produces ATP; has two membranes (outer = surface, inner = cristae, inner membrane called mitochondrial mix)
Mitochondria
