QuestionAnswer
What organelle harvests energy from organic compounds like glucose and is responsible for the production of ATP by cellular respiration mitochondria
Which organelle is responsible for the process of photosynthesis and contains chlorophyll? It is found in plants and algae. chloroplast
This is a green pigment, which absorbs the suns energy. It is found in plants, algae and certain bacteria. chlorophyll
This is a large membrane-bound sack found in plants and contains water, ions, nutrients and waste central vacuole
a structure found only in eukaryotes and houses the cells DNA, it is considered the control center nucleus
found inside the nucleus and is responsible for the production of ribosomes and RNA nucleolus
phospholipid bilayer which surrounds the outside of a cell, separates the cell from its environment and controls what enters and leaves the cell. It is selectively permeable or semi-permeable cell membrane
cellular structures which is responsible for the production of proteins- found attached to the rough Endoplasmic reticulum or in the cytoplasm ribosomes
this organelle modifies proteins and packages them - this is the packaging center of the cell. golgi apparatus, golgi complex or golgi bodies.
this organelle contains strong digestive enzymes-involved in programmed cell death - known as the suicide package of the cell lysosomes
rigid structure that surrounds the cell membrane in plants, fungi and most bacteria - provides structure and support. cell wall
These cells contain a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles eukaryotes
these single-celled organisms are small and do not have a nucleus. They have been on the planet for 3.5 billion years prokaryotes
long hair-like structures used for movement or locomotion. Found on bacteria and some eukaryotes flagella
small hair-like structures used to move substances or for locomotion cilia
transportation system of the cell - proteins are made on the surface of this organelle and then transported to the golgi rough endoplasmic reticulum
involved in processing lipids smooth endoplasmic reticulum
everything in between the nuclear membrane and the cell membrane cytoplasm
smallest unit capable of all life processes-surrounded by a membrane cell
the theory which states that all living things are made of one or more cells, all cells come from other cells and cells are the basic unit of structure and function cell theory
structures found in eukaryotes which have a specialized function organelle
small membrane-bound sac which transports materials within the cell vesicle
carbon dioxide and water are combined using the suns energy and sugar and oxygen are produced during this process photosynthesis
sugar and oxygen are "burned" and carbon dioxide, water and ATP are produced cellular respiration

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.
