cell functions

QuestionAnswer
mitochondria site of atp (energy) production
nucleus control center of the cell, contains DNA
vacuole stores waste, water and other substances
golgi apparatus sorts and packages proteins
lysosome digest foreign substances and old orgnells
smooth ER synthesizes lipids
ribosomes protein synthesis
centrioles formation of spindle fibers during cell reproduction
nucleolues site of ribosome syntheisis; found in the nucleus
rough ER contains ribosomes; that synthesize and secrete proteins for export
cell (plasma) membrane the 'skin' of the cell allows substances to move in and out of the cell
chloroplasts converts sun's energy into food (sugar) or chemical energy
cytoskeleton supports the shape of the cell and the cell's movement
what are the three componts of cytoplasm cytocil/orgnalls/inclusions
why are cristae important to the mitochondria folds in the mitochandria increse the surface area to maximise the production of ATP
state five ways that substances pass thru the cell membrane 1. ossimosis 2. diffusion 3. active transport 4. facilited diffusion 5. vesciles(transport large subatances
which ways of moving substances uses a lot of energy active transport
what is the function of proteins in the cell membrane to carry substance across the membrane
what is active transport when a cell moves material moves aginst the concration gradient
what is the concentration gradient the diffrence between the high point and the low point
hypotonic lower than sloution
hypertonic above the sloution
isotonic equal to the sloution
what is the main way active transport is diffrent than diffusion diffusion- high to low active transport- low to high
what is cell theory fundemental concept of biology
what are the three concepts that make up cell theory 1. all living orgnisms are made up of cells 2. the structure defines the function 3. new cells are formed from old cells
what is an orgenell structure inside the cell that has a specific function
what is the function of the nucleus? to control the functions and movements of the cell
what important molecules do the nucleus contain? the cells contain DNA
what graniluar material is visible within the nucleus? chromatin
what does chromitan consist of? chromitain consits of DNA bound protein
what are chrosomes? are the gentic make up of the cell and are what get passed down through diffrent genrations of cells
most nuclei contain a small, dense region known as the what? nuclols
what is the nuclear envlope is made of the nuclear membrane and the nuclear pores
what are ribosomes small particles of RNA and protein found throught the cytoplasm and the ribosomes that are attached to the rough ER produces proteins to be sent outside of the cell and the free floating ribosomes are making proteins for inside the cell
what are vocuoles structures that store materials such as waste, protein and water
what is the role of the vacuole in the plant cell the main role is to store the enegry from the sun until it can be converted into food
what is the mitochondria orgennls that convert energy into food ar ATP
where are chlorpasts found in plant cells
what is the cytoskelton structure in the cell that supports cell movement

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.
