QuestionAnswer
Cell Wall FOUND IN PLANT, FUNGI, AND BACTERIAL CELLS Tough, protective, rigid layer outside the cell/plasma membrane
Cell/Plasma Membrane FOUND IN ALL CELLS Selectively permeable barrier surrounding the cell - controls what enters and exits the cell
Centriole ONLY FOUND IN ANIMAL CELLS Cylindrical organelle made of microtubules that helps with cell division (making new cells)
Chloroplast ONLY FOUND IN PLANT CELLS Contains a green pigment, chlorophyll, that absorbs light to complete photosynthesis
Cytoplasm FOUND IN ALL CELLS The fluid that fills a cell, holding the organelles in place
Flagella Usually only found in bacterial cells Only human cell with a flagella is the sperm Tail like structure that aids will cell movement
Mitochondria FOUND IN EUKARYOTIC CELLS Responsible for cell respiration (makes ATP/energy)
Nucleus ONLY FOUND IN EUKARYOTES Store genetic information (DNA/RNA), control cell growth/reproduction, regulate gene expression by directing protein synthesis
Ribosome FOUND IN ALL CELLS Responsible for protein synthesis
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER) FOUND IN EUKARYOTIC CELLS Network of membranes studded with ribosomes responsible for synthesizing, folding, modifying, and transporting proteins
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER) FOUND IN EUKARYOTIC CELLS Network of membranes lacking ribosomes that are responsible for synthesizing lipids, steroids, and carbohydrates as well as metabolizing toxins (detoxification)
Golgi Body/Golgi Apparatus FOUND IN EUKARYOTIC CELLS Cellular “post office” Modify, sort, and package proteins and lipids from the ER into vesicles for delivery to other organelles
Vacuole FOUND IN EUKARYOTIC CELLS Large in plants; small in animals Responsible for storage, waste management, and maintaining cell structure/homeostasis
Lysosome FOUND IN EUKARYOTIC CELLS Breakdown waste, cellular debris, foreign invaders (ex: bacteria), and old organelles into reusable components for the cell

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.
