cell's security system | cell membrane |
gel-like substance inside cell | cytoplasm |
touch structure that surrounds and propects plant cells | cell wall |
control center of cell | nucleus |
green organelle | chloroplast |
cell's energy dam | mitochondria |
protein factories | ribosome |
found in eukaryotes | organelles |
surrounds and protects cell | cell membrane |
where cell processes (chemical reactions) occur | cytoplasm |
gives plant cells shape | cell wall |
contains directions for entire cell | nucleus |
in plant cells only | chloroplast |
stores and releases cell's energy | mitochondria |
make proteins | ribosome |
controls what enters and exits cell | cell membrane |
eighty percent water | cytoplasm |
made of cellulose (fiber) | cell wall |
DNA found here | nucleus |
photosinthesis occurs here | chloroplast |
powerhouse of cell | mitochondria |
some float freely in cytoplasm, others are attatched to the endoplasmic reticulum | ribosome |
surrounded by a nuclear membrane | nucleus |
captures energy from the sun to make glucose (plant food) | chloroplast |
cell's railroad track | endoplasmic reticulum |
cell's post office | golgi body |
manufactures the proteins that make up the ribosomes | nucleolus |
cell's landfill | lysosome |
temporarily stores food, water, and waste | vacuole |
framework for the cell | cytoskeleton |
a group of cells working together to perform a particulat function | tissue |
two or more tissues working together to perform a function | organ |
moves material around in cells | endoplasmic retuculum |
