CELLS study

QuestionAnswer
contains DNA responsible for a cells characteristics and controls the cellular structure and direct cellular activities Nucleus
in charge of protein synthesis and the collection and movement of ribosomes throughout the cell Rough ER
what does ER stand for Endoplasmic Reticulum
the powerhouse of the cell that is incharge of ATP production/ the energy the cell needs to move Mitochondria
protects the cell from making to much hydrogen peroxide Peroxisomes
produces ribosomes that take position on the cells Rough ER Nucleolus
contains hydrolytic enzymes necessary for inter cellular digestion (splits debris and particles) Lysosomes
acts as a protective barrier that controls what enters and exits a cell that is composed of phospholipids Cell membrane
a fluid where organelles reside and most cellular metabolism takes place Cytosol/Cytoplasm
differs between the movement/ synthesis of lipids (also steroid hormones) Smooth ER
role in intercellular digestion and the release of cellular waste Vacuole
all over the cell to provide structure Micro- and Intermediate Filaments
gives cells structure and helps a cell move Microtubules
packaging macromolescules for transport in the cell (removes waste) Golgi Complex
in charge of cell division and does this by making copies of itself and moving to opposite sides of the cell when splitting Centrsomes/centrioles
incharge of cell secretions like hormones and neurotransmitters. They collect and transport substances from the Golgi- complex and cell membrane Secretory Vesicles
unspecialized cells that are able to renew themselves for long periods of time by cell division. These are found throughout the body and function as the body's repair and replace system. stem cells can change into other cells. stem cells
cells that attack any cell and are uncontrollable cell growth and division cancer cells
cells in the nervous system that support, nourish, and protect neurons (nerve glue) glial
Transports oxygen Erytnocytes
Helps to contract muscles for movement Monocyte
Sensory receptors Merkel cells
White blood cells Leukocyte
Stores energy Adipocyte
Makes mucus Goblet/ Goblett cell
KIlls dangerous cells NK cells
Imune cells that kills other cells Cytotoxic
Gamets Reproductive
Cells located in the pancreus Pancreatic
specialized structure within a cell that performs specific functions organelle
outside a cell extracellular
inside a cell innercellular
extracellular structure that looks like a stick/honeycomb glycoprotein
part of a phospholipid that is water loving (the head) Hydrophilic
part of a phospholipid that is water fearing (the tail) hydrophobic
two steps that occur during protein synthesis transcription (rewrite) and translation (makes sense of the written)
reticular net like structure
phage to eat or devoure
endo- internal or within
