| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| orginelle | a structural and functional unit, such as a mitochondrion, in a cell or unicellular organism |
| cell membrane | a very thin membrane, composed of lipids and protein, that surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell and controls the passage of substances into and out of the cell |
| chromatin | readily substance of a cell nucleus that forms chromosomes during cell division. |
| ribosome | a tiny, somewhat mitten-shaped organelle occurring in great numbers in the cell cytoplasm either freely, in small clusters |
| chloroplast | a plastid containing chlorophyll |
| lysosome | a cell organelle containing enzymes that digest particles and that disolves the cell after its death. |
| hydrophobic | of or pertaining to hydrophobia |
| hyrophilic | tending to dissolve in, mix with, or be wetted by water: a hydrophilic colloid Compare |
| endoplasmic recticlum | the inner portion of the cytoplasm of a cell reticulated system or structure. |
| golgi complex | an organelle that takes up and processes secretory and synthetic products from the endoplasmic reticulum |
| mitochandria | an organelle in the cytoplasm of cells that functions in energy production |
| nucleie membrane | the double-layered membrane surrounding the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell, separating the nucleoplasm from the cytoplasm |
| chromosos | any of several threadlike bodies, consisting of chromatin, that carry the genes in a linear order |
| cell wall | the definite boundary or wall that is part of the outer structure of certain cells, as a plant cell |
| nuleus | a specialized, usually spherical mass of protoplasm that controls the cell |
| cytoplsm | the cell substance between the cell membrane and the nucleus, containing the cytosol, organelles, cytoskeleton |
| golgi body | an organelle that has endoplasmic reticulum |
| vacuole | a membrane-bound cavity within a cell, often containing a watery liquid or secretion |
| vesicle | a small bladderlike cavity, especially one filled with fluid |
| cytoskeleton | a shifting lattice arrangement of structural and contractile components distributed throughout the cell cytoplasm, composed of microtubules, microfilaments |
| nucleolus | a conspicuous, rounded body within the nucleus of a cell |
| chlorophyll | the green coloring matter of leaves and plants, essential to the production of carbohydrates by photosynthesis |
