Cell Organelles
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| cell wall | external layer that protects the cell and gives support and structure. found in plants and some prokaryotes |
| cell membrane | double layered lipid bilayer found in ALL cells. determines what can enter/exit the cell and provides protection to internal organelles |
| chloroplast | found in plants, contains the green pigment chlorophyll and responsible for carrying out photosynthesis |
| vacuole | found in plants and some animal cells. sac-like structure for storage |
| nucleus | contains genetic info (DNA) and controls cell activities |
| nucleolus | found inside of nucleus, responsible for making ribosomes |
| golgi apparatus | membrane structure, responsible for sorting, and packaging proteins and sending them to different parts of the cell |
| endoplasmic reticulum | makes proteins (rough ER with ribosomes), chemically modifies them and sends to golgi apparatus |
| ribosome | makes proteins |
| lysosome | disposes of cell waste and unwanted cell parts |
| mitochondria | carries out cellular respiration to make ATP energy for cells |
| cytoplasm | fluid-filled space in the cell |
| cytoskeleton | internal support system of cell that helps keep shape |
| flagella and cillia | external cell structure that helps some types of animal and prokaryote cells move around, |
