Cell Struct and Func

Cell Structure and Function

QuestionAnswer
what are the 3 parts of cell theory? all organisms are made of one or more cells, all cells carry on life activities, new cells arise only from other living cells by the process of cell division
which is 10x larger: prokaryotes or eukaryotes eukaryotes
which has a nucleus: prokaryotes or eukaryotes eukaryotes
which has no membrane-bound organelles prokaryotes
bacteria is an example of: prokaryotes or eukaryotes prokaryotes
cell wall, chloroplasts, central vacuole describes a: plant cell
rigid, external covering in plant cells, made of the polysaccharide cellulose, provides structural support cell wall
plastid containing chlorophyll - the photosynthetic pigment in green plants chloroplasts
stores cell wastes, very large central one in plants stores "cell sap", plant version of this also contains enzymes vacuole
cilia and centrioles are unique to: animal cells
small, bristle-like hairs covering the cell's surface cilia
helps move particles or fluid past the cell cilia
function to move the cell in a watery environment flagella
made of microtubules, ring of nine sets of three microtubules, form the spindle which pulls apart chromosomes during cell division centrioles
basic organelles found in both plant and animal cells: cell membrane, nucleus, nucleolus, rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum, golgi apparatus, ribosomes, lysosomes, vacuole, mitochondria
phopholipid bilayer, maintains homeostasis by its selective permeability (controls what goes in/out) cell membrane
this has eukaryotic cells, is surrounded by nuclear envelope or membrane, holds the DNA, controls cell by directing protein synthesis nucleus
this is in the nucleus, and makes RNA and ribosomes nucleolus
this is the most numerous organelle, made or rRNA, "free" and "attached" as part of the rough ER, responsible for protein synthesis ribosomes
network of channels surrounding the nucleus which serve to transport materials, studded with ribosomes, modifies recently synthesized proteins for export rough endoplasmic reticulum
Network of channels for transport of materials Synthesis and metabolism of lipids Detoxification of substances like alcohol smooth endoplasmic reticulum
Double membrane Inner folded membrane called “cristae” Site of cellular respiration to make ATP (energy) mitochondria
Membrane bound stacks called “cisternae” Packages proteins into vesicles for export Glycoproteins often secreted ex. Mucous golgi apparatus
Membrane-bound sacs of various sizes Contains hydrolytic enzymes to break down proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, sugars, etc. Numerous in phagocytic cells lysosomes
Explains the origin of eukaryotic cells endosymbiotic theory
according to the endosymbiotic theory ____________ were probably oxygen-consuming bacteria that supplied their host with energy mitochondria
according to the endosymbiotic theory ________ may have been cyanobacteria that provided their host with food chloroplasts
Both mitochondria and chloroplasts contain their own unique DNA is considered to be evidence for: endosymbiotic theory

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
