Pre-AP Organelles

Know the names and functions of organelles in eukayotic cells

Biology TermFunction
CELL WALL THE DEFINITE BOUNDARY THAT IS PART OF THE OUTER STRUCTURE OF THE CELL
CENTRIOLE SEPARATES CHROMOSOMES DURING CELL DIVISION
CHLOROPLAST CAPTURES THE ENERGY FROM SUNLIGHT AND CONVERTS IT TO CHEMICAL ENERGY (PHOTOSYNTHESIS)
CYTOPLASM MATERIAL INSIDE THE CELL MEMBRANE - NOT INCLUDING THE NUCLEUS
ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM WHERE LIPID COMPONENTS OF THE CELL MEMBRANE ARE ASSEMBLED, ALONG WITH PROTEINS AND OTHER MATERIALS THAT ARE EXPORTED FROM THE CELL.
GOLGI APPARATUS MODIFIES, SORTS, AND PACKAGES PROTEINS FROM THE ER FOR STORAGE IN THE CELL/SECRETION OUTSIDE THE CELL
LYSOSOME TRANSPORTS UNDIGESTED MATERIAL TO CELL MEMBRANE FOR REMOVAL;DIGESTS/BREAKS DOWN LIPIDS, CARBS, AND PROTEINS INTO SMALL MOLECULES THAT CAN BE USED BY THE REST OF THE CELL
MITOCHONDRIA RECYCLES AND DECOMPOSES PROTEINS, FATS, AND CARBOHYDRATES; CONVERT CHEMICAL ENERGY IN FOOD INTO COMPUNDS THAT ARE MORE CONVENIENT FOR THE CELL TO USE
NUCLEAR ENVELOPE LAYER OF 2 MEMBRANES THAT SURROUNDS THE NUCLEUS OF THE CELL
NUCLEOLUS CONTAINS RNA FOR PROTEIN MANUFACTURING
NUCLEUS CONTAINS GENETIC MATERIAL (DNA), CONTROLS THE CELL'S ACTIVITIES, AND CONTAINS CODED INSTUC. FOR MAKING PROTEINS
ORGANELLE PERFORMS IMPORTANT CELLULAR FUNCTIONS WITHIN A EUKARYOTIC CELL
PLASMA MEMBRANE ALLOWS PASSAGE OF MATERIALS
PLASTID DELIVERS NUTRIENTS & PROTEINS THROUGHOUT THE CELL, OR TRANSPORTS WASTES TO THE CELL MEMBRANE
RIBOSOME PRODUCE PROTEINS USING CODED INSTRUC. THAT COME FROM THE NUCLEUS
VACUOLE STORES WATER, SLATS, PROTEINS, AND CARBOHYDRATES
VESICLE STORES FOOD AND PIGMENTS
MICROFILAMENTS THREADLIKE STRUCTURES THAT FORM EXTENSIVE NETWORKS TO FORM A TOUGH, FLEXIBLE FRAMEWORK THAT SUPPORTS THE CELL
MICROTUBULES THEY PLAY A CRITICAL ROLE IN MAINTAINING THE CELL'S SHAPE
CYTOSKELETON A NETWORK OF PROTEIN FILAMENTS THAT HELPS THE CELL TO MAINTAIN ITS SHAPE

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.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
