Question | Answer |
located in the Eukarotic cell | Nucleus |
the control center of the cell | Nucleus |
Contains DNA (cromatin) | Nucleus |
filled with nucleoplasm | Nucleus |
contains nucleolus | Nucleus |
small structure within the nucleus | Nucleolus |
assembles ribosomes | nucleolus |
manufacture proteins either in the cytoplasm or while attached to the Rough ER | ribosomes |
gelatin like substance that all organelles float in | cytoplasm |
there are several ribosomes floating by themselves in cytoplasm, therefore there is a lot of _____ in the cytoplasm | protein |
converts simple molecules into more complex molecules | Endoplasmic Reticulum |
Acts as a transportation system | Endoplasmic Reticulum |
converts simple proteins into more complex proteins and transports them throughout the cell | Rough ER |
converts simple lipids into more complex lipids that eventually go to form parts of the cell membrane | Smooth ER |
Packages and ships certain molecules (proteins, lipids) out of the cell or to different places within the cell | Golgi Apparatus |
Looks like pancakes | Golgi Apparatus |
typically located close to endoplasmic reticulum and the cell membrane | Golgi Apparatus |
Produced by the Golgi Apparatus, contains cellular molecules that are to be transported out of the cell or to different places within the cell | Vesicles |
Membrane bound bag of cellular materials | Vesicles |
the power house of the cell | mitochondria |
site for cellular respiration (the chemical reaction whereby glucose in converted to ATP) | mitochondria |
found prolifically in cells requiring lots of energy | mitochondria |
provides the cell with shape and structure and protection from the inside of the cell | Cytoskeleton |
consists of the microtubes and microfiliments | Cytoskeleton |
little tube | microtube |
little hairlike extension in the cytoskeleton | microfiliment |
made of two layers of phospholipids | Cell Membrane |
Semi permeable allowing only certain things in and certain things out of the cell | Cell Membrane |
Covers all cells | Cell Membrane |
Filled with digestive enzymes that break down old cell parts and store wastes | Lysosome |
typically found in animal cells | Lysosome |
two external structures that allow for movement of the cell | Flagella and celia |
long whip like extension of the cell membrane allows swimming | flagella |
short extensions that brush things (bacteria, dust) out of the way | cilia |
Three structures that are unique to plant cells | Cell Wall, Chloroplasts, Vacuole |
provides the plant cell with shape and structure | cell wall |
made of cellulose | cell wall |
provides the plant cell with green pigmentation/color due to the chlorophyll | chloroplasts |
chlorophyll allows the _____ to capture sunlight and convert it into chemical energy for the cell to use | chloroplasts |
site for photosynthesis | chloroplasts |
chemical reaction allowing the plant cell to make its food | photosysthesis |
giant storage bin for food, wastes and water | Vacuole |
Centrally located and called the central _____ | Vacuole |
