Biology Cells Test
Microscope and Cell Parts
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Cell Membrane | Controls the movement into and out of the cell |
| Cytoplasm | Watery material which contains many of the materials involved in cell metabolism |
| Endoplasmic Recticulum | Serves as a pathway for the transport of materials throughout the cell; also associated with synthesis and storage |
| Nucleus | serves as the control center for cell metabolism and reproduction |
| Ribosomes | sites of protein synthesis |
| Lysosomes | Involved in the digestion of food within the cell |
| Mitochondria | The "powerhouse" of the cell |
| Golgi Apparatus | Packages and secretes the products of 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 Membrane | Controls movement into and out of the nucleus |
| Cell Wall | Gives the cell its shape and provides protection; not found in animal cells |
| Cilia | Hairlike structures with the capacity for movement |
| Flagella | a long, hairlike structure used for movement |
| Chloroplast | site for photosynthesis |
| Chromosomes | Rod-shaped bodies that carry genetic information |
| Nuclear Membrane | Holds nucleus together |
| Endoplasmic Reticulum | Surface for chemical activity |
| Genes | units of heredity |
| Lysosome | digestion center |
| Ribosomes | where proteins are made |
| Centrioles | structures involved in mitosis in animal cells only |
| Microtubule | microscopic cylinders that support and give the cell shape |
| Cell Wall | Shapes and supports a plant cell |
| Golgi Bodies | stores and releases chemicals |
| Chloroplasts | food for plant cells is made here |
| Nucleolus | Spherical body within nucleus |
| Cell (Plasma) Membrane | controls entry into and out of the cell |
| Chlorophyll | Traps light and is used to produce food for plants |
| Nucleus | Chromosomes are found here |
| Cytoplasm | jellylike substance within the cell |
| Chromosomes | Contains code which guides all cell activity |
| Nuclear Pore | minute hole in nuclear membrane |
| Vacuole | Contains water and dissolved minerals |
| Plastid | Stores food or contains pigment |
| Organelles | Small, Specialized structure usually surrounded by a membrane; each organelle has a specific function in the cell |
| Pro= | =Before |
| Eu= | =Good |
| Karyon= | =Kernel or nucleus |
