|
Cytoskeleton |
-long, thin protein fibers that hold the structure of the cell and anchor organelles and structures inside the cell -the fibers are called microtubules and microphiliments -organelles and other structures do not flow freely because of this - eukaryotic and prokaryotic, animals |
|
|
Cilia |
-short and numerous hair-like projections -moves liquid past the surface of the cell -eukaryotic, animal |
|
|
Flagella |
-longer and less numerous than cilia -moves in whip-like motion, providing locomotion for cell -eukaryotic and prokaryotic, animal |
|
|
Cytoplasm |
-semi fluid material in a cell surrounding organelles and other structures -all prokaryotic chemical reactions take place here -eukaryotic and prokaryotic, plants and animals |
|
|
Cell Membrane |
-made of a phospholipid bilayer and proteins -controls movement of substances in and out of the cell -helps maintain homeostasis -eukaryotic and prokaryotic, plants and animals |
|
|
Cell Wall |
-in plants cells and some prokaryotes -thick, rigid network of fibers outside of the membrane -protects and provides support, allowing plants to stand -composed of cellulose (plants) -eukaryotes and prokaryotes, plants |
