the smallest unit that can preform all life processes cells are covered by a membrane and have DNA and cytoplasm | cell |
a phosphoric layer that covers and protects a cells surface; acts as a barrier between the cells environment | cell membrane |
one of the small bodies in a cells cytoplasm that are specialized to perform a specific function | organelle |
in a Eukaryota cell a membrane that contains (produces and stores) the cells DNA and processes such as growth and reproduction | nucleus |
an organism that consists of a single cell that does not have a nucleus or membrane bound ogranelles | prokaryote |
an organism made up of cells that have a nucleus enclosed by a membrane eukaryotes animals plant and fungi but not archaebacteria or eubacteria | eukaryote |
a rigid structure that surrounds the cell membrane and provides support to the cell | cell wall |
cell organelle composed of rna and protein; the site of proteins synthesis (makes protein) | ribosome |
a system of folded membranes that assists in the production processing and transport (internal delivery system) of proteins and in the production of lipids | endoplasmic reticulum |
