Word
Definition
show earliest microscope where visual light passes thru the specimen and thru a glas lense which bend the light so that the image is magnified  
🗑
show measure of the clarity of the image  
🗑
organelles   show
🗑
electron microscope   show
🗑
cell ultrastructure   show
🗑
transmission electron microscope   show
🗑
show surface of specimen, scans surface of specimen which is coated in gold, creates 3-d images  
🗑
cell fractionation   show
🗑
show merry go round! 80,000 revolutions per minute, used to fractionate cells  
🗑
show no nucleus  
🗑
show genetic material of prokaryotic cell stored here  
🗑
Eurkaryotic cell   show
🗑
cytoplasm   show
🗑
cytosol   show
🗑
show barrier that allows sufficient passage of oxygen, nutrients, and wastes to service the entire volume of the cell  
🗑
nucleus   show
🗑
nuclear lamina   show
🗑
show material inwhich DNA and proteins are organized  
🗑
chromosomes   show
🗑
show components of ribosomes are synthesized and assembled  
🗑
Ribosomes   show
🗑
Endomembrane System   show
🗑
show a network of membranous tubules and sacs called cisternae, separates its internal compartment, the cisternal spac from the cytosol  
🗑
Smooth ER   show
🗑
show appears rough under electron microscope due to ribosomes, secretes proteins and makes membranes  
🗑
show most secretoy proteins that are covalently bonded to carbohydrates  
🗑
transport vesciles   show
🗑
Golgi Apparatus   show
🗑
show membrane bounded sacof hydrolytic enzymes that the cell usues to digest macromolecules  
🗑
phagocytosis   show
🗑
food vacuoles   show
🗑
contractile vacuoles   show
🗑
tonoplast   show
🗑
show stores organic compounds, receptacle of inorganic ions, protect plant by containing poison, pigment colors  
🗑
Mitochondria   show
🗑
show found only in plants and eukaryotic algae, site of photosynthesis, contains some DNA, contain the green pigment chlorophyll, has 2 membranes (one out and one in)  
🗑
show the inner membrane of mitochondria is twisted with innerfoldings called this, gives it large surface area that enhances productivity of cellular respiration  
🗑
show second compartment of mitochondria that is enclosed by the inner membrane, some metabolic steps of cellular respiration occur here  
🗑
plastids   show
🗑
show flattened sacs inside the membranous system inside the chloroplast  
🗑
show structure formed by thylakoids  
🗑
show fluid outside the thylakoids

🗑
show where microtubules grow out from near the nucleus,contains a pair of centrioles  
🗑
show composed of nine sets of triplet microtuules arranged in a ring, replicate thru division, exsistance lacking in most plants  
🗑

🗑
cilia   show
🗑
show the anchor in the cell during the assembly of cilia and flagella, structurally identical to centriole  
🗑

🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
