Cells
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| cell membrane | controls the movement into and out of the cell |
| cytoplasm | fluid that includes everything inside cell membrane and outside nucleus |
| rough ER | membrane network with ribosomes attached location where proteins are made and transported to other parts of cell |
| nucleus | organelle that holds the molecule that carries the code for making a protein |
| ribosomes | site of protein synthesis |
| Golgi apparatus | flattened disks used for repackaging of proteins lipids and carbs for export |
| mitochondria | changes food energy into ATP |
| lysosomes | contains hydrolytic enzymes involved in the digestion of food within the cell |
| centrioles | involved in cell division in animal cells |
| vacuole | fluid filled organelles enclosed by a membrane; contains stored food or wastes |
| nucleolus | site of the production of ribosomes |
| nuclear envelope | controls movement into and out of the nucleus |
| cell wall | gives the cell it's shape and provides protection; not found in animal cells |
| cilia | hairlike structures giving the cell the capacity for movement |
| flagella | a long hairlike structure used for movement |
| cytoskeleton | mesh like network of protein fibers |
| chloroplast | site of photosynthesis |
| cell plate | during cytokinesis new cell forms on both sides |
| chromosomes | rod shaped bodies of Dna that carry genetic information |
| central vacuole | holds water and supports plant cell from inside out |
| why are small cells survive better than large cells? | has more surface area but has a small volume so it can absorb more nutrients |
| what trick can a large cell do to maintain a large surface area volume ratio? | they have a folded membrane with arm like extensions and increases the Surface area |
| what do all eukaryote cells have that enable them to be efficient in exchange of materials inside the cell? | have many folded membrane organelles that increase the surface area for exchange |
| cell theory | all living things are made up of cells. cells are basic structure and function in living things. all cells come from other things |
| schleiden | discovered plant |
| schwann | discovered animal |
| virchow | concluded all cells come from other cells |
| hooke | first to use word cell |
