| A phospholipid layer that covers a cell's surface and acts as a barrier between the inside of a cell and the cells environment. | Cell Membrane |
| The region of the cell within the membrane that includes the fluid, the cytoskeleton, and all of the organelles except the nucleus. | Cytoplasm |
| The cytoplasmic network of protein filaments that plays an essentail role in cell movement, shape, and devision | Cytoskeleton |
| A cell organelle composed of RNA and protien; the site of protien synthesis. | Ribosome |
| An organism that consists of a single cell that does not have a nuclues or cell organelles; An example is a bacterium. | Prokaryote |
| A rigid structure that surrounds the cell membrane and provides support to the cell. | Cell Wall |
| A long, hairlike structure that grows out of a cell and enables the cell to move. | Flagellum |
| AN organism made up of cells that have a nucleus enclosed by a membrane, multiple chromosomes, and a mitoc cycle; eukaryyotes include: animals, plants, and fungi but not bacteria or cyano bacteria | Eukaryote |
| In a eukaryotic cell, biology, a membrane bound organelle that contains the cells DNA and that has a role in processes such as growth, metabolism, and reproduction. | Nucleus |
| one of the small bodies that are found in the cytoplasm of a cell and that are specialied to proform a specific function. | Organelle |
| A hairlike structure arranged in tightly packed rows that projects from the surface of some cells. | Cilium |
