| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Cell | were the basic units of life |
| Cell Theory | a fundemental concept of biology |
| Nucleus | is a large membreane-enclosed stucture that contains the cell's genetic material in the form of DNA |
| Eukaryotes | cells that contain nuclei |
| Prokaryotes | calls that do not contail nuclei |
| Organelles | literally little organs |
| Cytoplasm | the portion of the cell outside the nucleus |
| Nuclear Envolope | surrounds the nucleus and conposed of two membranes |
| Chromatin | granular material you can see in the nucleus. |
| Chromosomes | ditinct, threadlike structures contain the genetic information that is passed from one generation of cells to the next |
| Nucleolus | is where the assembly of ribosomes begins |
| Bibosomes | are small particles of RNA and protein found throughout the cytoplasm |
| Endoplasmic Reticulum | is the site where lipid components of the cell membrane are essembled, along with proteins and other materials that are exported from the cell |

| Golgi Apparatus | protiens produced in the rough ERomve next into an organelle |
| Lysosomes | are small organelles filled with enzymes |
| Vacuoles | some kinds of cells contain saclike structures called vacuoles |
| Mitochondria | nearly all eukaryoti calls, including plants, contain mitochondria |
| Chloroplasts | are organelles that capture the energy from sunlight and convert it into chemical energy in a prosses called photosynthesis |
| Cytoskeleton | is a network of protein filaments that helps the cell to maintain its shape. the cytoskeleton is also involved in movement |
| Cell Membrane | cells are surrounded my a thin flexible barrier known as the cell membrane |
| Cell Wall | a strong suppoting layer around the membrane |
| Lipid Bilayer | the composition of nearly all cell membranes is a double-layered sheet |
| Concentration | the mass of solute in a given volume of solution, or mass/volume. |
