Cell Organelles And Functions - Mrs. List

Front 1

where organelles are found, everything in the cell except the nucleus

Back 1

cytoplasm

Front 2

maintains cell shape, moves organelles and cell; microtubles and microfilaments; found only in euk.

Back 2

cytoskeleton

Front 3

protects genetic material; found only in euk.

Back 3

nucleus

Front 4

produces energy for the cell using cell respiration; Sugar + O2 --> ATP + CO2 + H2O; found only in euk.

Back 4

mitochondria

Front 5

synthesizes proteins; found in both pro. and eu.

Back 5

ribosomes

Front 6

manufactures and transports proteins, manufactures fats; found only in eu.

Back 6

endoplasmic reticulum

Front 7

packages proteins for secretion; found only in eu.

Back 7

Golgi complex

Front 8

makes food; found only in PLANT eu.

Back 8

chloroplasts

Front 9

used for storage; found mainly in PLANT eu.

Back 9

vacuoles

Front 10

provides stability and protection; found only in PLANT eu. or some pro.

Back 10

cell wall

Front 11

made an accurate single lens microscope able to see protists and some bacteria; 1600's

Back 11

Antonie van Leeuwenhoek

Front 12

a whip-like structure projecting from the surface that allows the organism to swim

Back 12

flagellum

Front 13

fluid in the cytoplasm; a grayish, gel-like liquid containing the nucleus, organelles, and cytoskeletion

Back 13

cytosol

Front 14

thick, hollow rods that provide a strong scaffold for the cell; used in cytoskeleton and flagella

Back 14

microtubules

Front 15

thin rods made of a protein called actin; used in cytoskeleton and flagella

Back 15

microfilaments

Front 16

a double membrane separating the interior of the nucleus from the cytoplasm; has special pores

Back 16

nuclear envelope

Front 17

the stringy web of genetic material and histone proteins found in the nucleus of euk. cells

Back 17

chromatin

Front 18

a dense area in the nucleus, makes the rRNA that will become ribosomes

Back 18

nucleolus

Front 19

the process by which plants convert light energy into organic materials, such as glucose

Back 19

photosynthesis

Front 20

the process by which all euk. cells convert food into cellular energy (ATP);

Back 20

cellular respiration

Front 21

a membrane enclosed organelle containing enzymes to break down all sorts of cellular debris; like a garbage disposal or stomach

Back 21

lysosome

Front 22

a hairlike appendage(s) found on the surface of many bacteria; used for conjunction; feelers

Back 22

pili (-us)

Front 23

the protective structure surrounding some bacteria; like a slime coat

Back 23

capsule

Front 24

first used the word cell to name the microscopic honeycomb cavities in cork.

Back 24

Robert Hooke

Front 25

His contributions include one of the earliest detailed descriptions of the cell nucleus

Back 25

Robert Brown

Front 26

“omnis cellula e cellula” (“every cell stems from another cell”).

Back 26

Rudolf Virchow

Front 27

He concluded that all plant parts are made of cells

Back 27

Matthias J. Schlieden

Front 28

produces images of a sample by scanning it with a focused beam of electrons; images 3D

Back 28

Scanning Electron Microscope

Front 29

a beam of electrons is transmitted through an ultra-thin specimen;

Back 29

Transmission Electron Microscope

Front 30

Area of a prokaryote that contains all or most of the genetic material; does not protect DNA; means "fake"

Back 30

nucleoid

Front 31

to make

Back 31

synthesize
