| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| functions of the cells | organelles (allison) |
| the clear watery fluid between the cell wall and the nucleus | cytosol (allison) |
| the fluid and all of the organelles floating in it | cytoplasm (allison) |
| protects the cell and holds it together | cell membrane (allison) |
| the brain of the cell, controls all of its functions | nucleus (allison) |
| what controls what gets in and out of the nucleus | nuclear membrane (allison) |
| what makes a cell develop, if we didn’t have this we would not have cells | Chromatin (DNA) (allison) |
| the powerhouse of the cell; they have their own DNA | mitochondria (allison) |
| receives messages from the nucleus, pinches off vesicles | endoplasmic reticulum (allison) |
| what covers the endoplasmic reticulum | ribosomes (allison) |
| act as transport containers that form from the endoplasmic reticulum | vesicles (allison) |
| has the job of sorting/packaging proteins and transport them in the new vesicles | golgi apparatus (allison) |
| bestioles that contain digestive enzymes that (1) break things down for reuse/recycling or (2) destroy invading microbes. | lysosomes (allison) |
| the creation of energy using "cellular respiration" that involves glucose being converted into this form of energy | adenosine triphosphate (ATP) (allison) |
| rigid outer layer that helps plants stand up | cell wall (allison) |
| make energy using carbon dioxide, water and the Sun’s energy | chloroplasts containing green chlorophyll (allison) |
| stores water because it does not rain all of the time | large vacuole (allison) |
