Cells
Name Draw and Label Cells!!
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Animal Cell | Every organism, or living thing, is made up of structures called cells. The cell is the smallest unit with the basic properties of life. |
| Plant Cell | Every organism, or living thing, is made up of structures called cells. |
| Mitochondrian (mitochondria) | Bacteria constitute a large domain or kingdom of prokaryotic microorganisms |
| Ribosome | is not surrounded by a membrane. Proteins are made on. |
| Vesicle | a membranous and usually fluid-filled pouch (as a cyst, vacuole, or cell) in a plant or animal |
| Nucleus | is the part of a eukaryotic cell that directs cell activities and contains genetic information stored in DNA. |
| Chloroplast | a membrane bound organelles that use light energy and make food - a sugar called glucose |
| Golgi Apparatus | It prepares proteins for their specific jobs or functions. Packages proteins into tiny membranes ball like structures called vesicles. |
| Cell Membrane | is a flexible covering that protects the inside of a cell from the environment outside a cell. |
| Cell Wall | is a stiff structure outside the cell membrane. |
| Cytoskeleton Central Vacuole | is a network of threadlike proteins that are joined together. |
| Smooth Endoplasmic reticulum | an extensive intracellular membrane system whose functions include synthesis and transport of lipids and, in regions where ribosomes are attached, of proteins |
| Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum | is a type of organelle in the cells of eukaryotic organisms that forms an interconnected network of flattened, membrane-enclosed sacs or tubes known as cisternae. |
| Lysosome | an organelle in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells containing degradative enzymes enclosed in a membrane. |
| Centriole | a minute cylindrical organelle near the nucleus in animal cells, occurring in pairs and involved in the development of spindle fibers in cell division. |
| DNA | is organized into structures called chromosomes. |
| Flagellum (flagella) | a slender threadlike structure, esp. a microscopic whiplike appendage that enables many protozoa, bacteria, spermatozoa, etc., to swim. |
| Capsule | a tough sheath or membrane that encloses something in the body, such as a kidney, a lens, or a synovial joint. |
| Prokaryotic Cells | the genectic material floats frelly in the cytoplasm. Is not surrounded by a membrane. |
| Eukaryotic Cells | has genetic material that is surrounded by a membrane. |
| Organelles | which have specialized functions. Most organelles are surrounded by membranes. |
| Unicellular | (of protozoans, certain algae and spores, etc.) consisting of a single cell. |
| Multicellular | (of an organism or part) having or consisting of many cells. |
| Cell theory | States that all living things are made of one or more cells, the cell is the smallest unit of life, and all new cells come from preexisting cells. |
| Nuclear Membrane | A nuclear membrane, also known as the nuclear envelope, nucleolemma or karyotheca, is the double lipid bilayer membrane which surrounds the genetic material and nucleolus in eukaryotic cells |
| Nuclear envelope | contains many pores. certain molecules like ribosomes and rna move into and out of the nucleus through these pores. |
| Nucleolus | is a large dark spot in the nucleus cell. The nucleolus makes ribosomes, organelles that are involved in the production of protein. |
| Bacterial Cell | Bacteria constitute a large domain or kingdom of prokaryotic microorganisms. Typically a few micrometres in length, bacteria have a wide range of shapes, ranging from spheres to rods and spirals. . |
