Question | Answer |
---|---|
Ribosomes | small organelles composed of RNA-rich cytoplasmic granules that are sites of protein synthesis. |
Cytoplasm | the jellylike material outside the cell nucleus in which the organelles are located |
Cell Membrane | the thin layer of protein and fat that surrounds the cell. The cell membrane is semipermeable, allowing some substances to pass into the cell and blocking others |
Mitochondria | spherical to rod-shaped organelles with a double membrane. The inner membrane is infolded many times. converts the energy stored in glucose into ATP (adenosine triphosphate) for the cell. |
Golgi Appurtus | a flattened, layered, sac-like organelle and is located near the nucleus. It produces the membranes that surround the lysosomes. The Golgi body packages proteins and carbohydrates into membrane-bound vesicles for "export" from the cell. |
Rough ER | a vast system of interconnected, membranous, infolded and convoluted sacks that are located in the cell's cytoplasm Rough ER is covered with ribosomes that give it a rough appearance. |
Nuclear Membrane | the membrane that surrounds the nucleus |
