|
Cytoplasm |
the organelles are suspended within it |
|
|
Membrane |
Surrounds the cell |
|
|
Phospholipids |
Proteins that make up cell membrane. Heads are hydrophilic, tails are hydrophobic |
|
|
Enzyme Molecules |
Catalyst of metabolic reactions inside the cell |
|
|
Binding Proteins |
Form connections between cells |
|
|
Structure Protein |
Maintain cell shape |
|
|
Glycoproteins |
Act as markers in the cell so that the cells can be recognized by others |
|
|
Ribosomes |
Synthesize protein. Translates genetic code found on RNA into proteins |
|
|
Cilia and Flagella |
Hair-like extensions of the cell that propel |
|
|
Microvilli |
Fingerlike extensions that increase surface area for absorption |
|
|
Cytoskeleton |
Framework of the cell |
|
|
Nucleolus |
Plays a role in the formation of ribosomes
|
|
|
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum |
Has ribosomes on it |
|
|
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum |
Acts as a channel for enzyme activity, carbohydrates and lipid synthesis. Vesicles break off and deliver protein packages to the Golgi |
|
|
Golgi Apparatus |
-Receives vesicles from SER -binds proteins with other proteins and carbohydrates -Pinches off as a vesicle that attaches to the plasma membrane for release |
|
|
Lysozyme |
Reabsorbs and breaks down unneeded or malfunctioning proteins and can reuse amino acids |
|
|
Mitochondria |
-Power-Plant of the cell -releases energy in the form of ATP |
|
|
Nucleus |
Contains DNA that make up chromosomes |
|
|
Passive Transport |
Requires no energy -Osmosis -Diffusion -Channel mediation -Carrier mediation |
|
|
Active Transport |
Uses energy -Transportation pumps -Vesicle Transport |
