organelle
|
A tiny cell structure that carries out a specific function within the cell.
|
|
cell wall
|
A rigid layer of non-living material that surrounds the cells
found in plant cells and in bacteria supports and protects |
|
cell membrane
|
controls what substance enter and leave the cell
barrier between cell and its environment. |
|
nucleus
|
it directs the cell activities
|
|
cytoplasm
|
gel-like fluid
suspends the organelles dissolves important chemicals needed for life. |
|
mitochondrion= one
mitochondria = more that one |
converts energy in food into energy that the cell can use
requires oxygen |
|
rough endoplasmic reticulum (rER)
|
transports proteins from ribosomes to the Golgi body.
its covered ion ribosomes. |
|
ribosome
|
found in the cytoplasm or on endoplasmic reticulum
make proteins read the RNA instructions and use them to make proteins. |
|
Golgi body
|
revives proteins from rER
sots them packages them sends them to other parts of the cell. outside of the cell membrane lysosome |
|
chloroplast
|
site of photosynthesis, which is making food from sunlight energy, and CO2. Oxygen is a waste product.
|
|
vacuole
|
store food, waste and water
animal cell have many small ones or none at all plant cells have one LARGE one. |
|
lysosome
|
A small, round cell structure containing chemicals that break down large food particles into smaller ones.
|
|
nuclear envelope
|
protectins the DNA
materials pass in and out through the pores |
|
chromatin (DNA)
|
contains genetic material (DNA)
contains instructions for running the cell. instructions = genes copies pf genes called RNA |
|
nucleolus
|
produces ribosomes
|
|
smooth endoplasmic reticulum (sER)
|
produces and transports fats throughout the cell.
