Contains DNA and is the control center of the cell. Its one of the largest organelles. Materials pass into and out of it through pores in the nuclear envolpe

In plant cells the sites where photosynthesis take place in a plant cell.

Converts energy stored in food to energy the can use to live and function

Functions as factories that make proteins for the cell can attach to ER can float around in cytoplasm

Endoplasmic Reticulum

Structures that look like a maze. A network of folded membranes that move materials throughout the cell

When proteins leave ER they go to the Golgi body is the site where proteins are packaged and distributed

Organelles that contain chemicals which digest waste products and worn out cell parts. Releases material that can be used again

Storage part of a cell. Acts as temporary storage center- stores water, food, and other materials needed by a cell

are the smallest/basic unit of life that conducts all life functions. Cells vary in size and shape but contain most of the same parts Bacteria are the smallest organisms made of 1 cell

The first cells from an organism were observed by Robert Hooke in the 1600s. Soon after microscopist van Leeuwenhoek observed many other living cells.

All living things are composed of 1 or more cells, the cell is the basic unit of structure & function in living things, new cells are produced

tiny cell structures that carries out specif functions within the cell

Ridgid layer surrounding plant cells and some other organisms (but not animal cells)

The thin, flexible barrier surrounding the cell.

the clear gel like fluid inside of a cell made out of mostly water and some salt.

occurs in chloroplast, plants use sunlight , carbon dioxide and water to make simpler sugars, plant cells release oxygen once the sugars are formed, they are either used by the plant or stored in vacuoles.

occurs in the mitocondria of the cells the cell uses energy to build, repaired, & reproduce cells

organisms get rid of waste that can be harmful to the cell this occurs in lysosomes

is cell reproduction that occurs in nucleus of the cell it enables to make an exact copy of itself

Mitochondria	Converts energy stored in food to energy the can use to live and function
Ribosomes	Functions as factories that make proteins for the cell can attach to ER can float around in cytoplasm
Endoplasmic Reticulum	Structures that look like a maze. A network of folded membranes that move materials throughout the cell
Golgi Body	When proteins leave ER they go to the Golgi body is the site where proteins are packaged and distributed
Lysosomes	Organelles that contain chemicals which digest waste products and worn out cell parts. Releases material that can be used again
Vacuole	Storage part of a cell. Acts as temporary storage center- stores water, food, and other materials needed by a cell
Cell	are the smallest/basic unit of life that conducts all life functions. Cells vary in size and shape but contain most of the same parts Bacteria are the smallest organisms made of 1 cell
Cell Discovery	The first cells from an organism were observed by Robert Hooke in the 1600s. Soon after microscopist van Leeuwenhoek observed many other living cells.
Cell Theory	All living things are composed of 1 or more cells, the cell is the basic unit of structure & function in living things, new cells are produced
organelle	tiny cell structures that carries out specif functions within the cell
Cell Wall	Ridgid layer surrounding plant cells and some other organisms (but not animal cells)
Cell Membrane	The thin, flexible barrier surrounding the cell.
Cytoplasm	the clear gel like fluid inside of a cell made out of mostly water and some salt.
Photosynthesis	occurs in chloroplast, plants use sunlight , carbon dioxide and water to make simpler sugars, plant cells release oxygen once the sugars are formed, they are either used by the plant or stored in vacuoles.
Respiration	occurs in the mitocondria of the cells the cell uses energy to build, repaired, & reproduce cells
