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
|
