organelle
|
These tiny cell structures, called organelle, carry out specific functions within the cell.
|
|
cell wall
|
The cell wall is a rigid layer of nonliving material that surrounds the cell of plants and some other organisms
|
|
cell membrane
|
After you sail through the cell wall, the next barrier you must cross ist the cell membrane.
|
|
nucleus
|
The nucleus directs all of the cell`s activities, including reproduction.
|
|
nuclear envelope
|
The nuclear envelope protects the nucleus materials pass in and out of the nucleus through pores in the nucleus.
|
|
chromatin
|
These strands, called chromatin, contain genetic material, the instructions for directing the cell`s functions.
|
|
Nucleolus
|
This structure, a nucleolus, is where ribosomes are made.
|
|
cytoplasm
|
The cytoplasm includes a gel-like fluid in which many different organelles are found.
|
|
mitochondria
|
They convert energy in food molecules to energy the cell can use to carry.
|
|
endoplasmic reticulum
|
network of passageways. carries materials from one part of the cell to an other
|
|
ribosome
|
produce proteinsmay float in the cytoplasm or be attached to the endoplasmic reticulum
|
|
golgi body
|
they recieve materialos and send them around, they also release things outside the cell
|
|
chloroplast
|
capture sunlight energy to produce food to feed the cell.
|
|
vacuole
|
some animal cells have them. they store food, water, easte and other materials
|
|
lysosome
|
contain chemicals that break down food and wast band old cells.
|
|
specialiced cells
|
Specialized cells perform specialized functions in multicellular organisms. Groups of specialized cells cooperate to form a tissue, such as a muscle.
|
|
tissue
|
An aggregation of morphologically similar cells and associated intercellular matter acting together to perform one or more specific functions in the body
|
|
organs
|
A group of tissues that perform a specific function or group of functions.
|
|
organ system
|
A group of organs that work together to carry out a particular task.
|
|
bacterial cell
|
a cell that does have a cell wall and a cell membrane, but not a nucleus. the ginetic material looks like a thick tangled string and is found in the cytoplasm.
