Animal Cells
*Robert Farrell's Animal Cell Definitions
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Ribosome | Small White dots on the RER (Endoplasmic Reticulum): Protein Synthesis |
| Cell Membrane | Turquoise outer membrane: Regulation of material in and out of the cell |
| Golgi Bodies | Pink with gray centers: Packaging plants for secretion. Golgi Vesicles filled with materials for secretion, break away and move materials out |
| Pinocytic Vesicle | Flask shape on membrane (turquoise with blue center): transport of liquid in and out of cell |
| Cytoplasm | Translucent material inside cell membrane: Support and nurishes organelles |
| Centrioles | Pair of 9 yellow toothpicks inside centrosome: Moves chromosomes apart during mitosis |
| Vacuole | Round Organelle, grey with black centers: Food storage and excretion of waste products |
| Centrosome | Big round black organelle: production of centrioles |
| Annulus | Holes in nuclear membranes: transport of material in and out of the nucleus |
| Chromosome | Blue and white coiled wires in the center of the nucleus: Contains genes and DNA |
| Nucleolus | Orange translucent ball in the center of nucleus: production of RNA and Ribosomes |
| #12 from notes: Not used | Don't need to know |
| Internuclear membrane | Regulates movement of material in and out of nucleus - white |
| Nuclear Sap | Nucleoplasm: clear inside nucleus: support and nurishment of chromosomes |
| Nuclear Pore | Annulus on inner nuclear membrane; transports material in and out of the nucleus |
| Mitochondria | Orange with brown squiggly centers: Powerhouse of the cell: Manufactures ATP: (Energy currency of the cell) aerobic respiration |
| Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER) | Turquoise with white dots (Ribosomes): Transport of materials and aids in protein synthesis |
| Intercellular Sap | Dark Blue - metabolic processes |
| Lysosomes | Yellow with orange translucent centers: Garbage Collector: Bags of Digestive Enzymes |
| Outer Nuclear Membrane | Turquoise: Regulates movement of materials in and out of nucleus |
| Nucleus | Control Center of the Cell: Contains genetic material (chromatin, chromosomes, DNA) |
| Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER) | Turquoise - Valentine/heart shaped: Transport of material and aid of lipid synthesis |
