Cells and their organelles.

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.

Term
Definition
Cell Theory   1. All living organisms are composed of one or more cells. 2.The cell is the most basic unit of life. 3.All cells arise from pre-existing, living cells.  
🗑
Robert Hooke   invented microscope, 30x coined term cell  
🗑
Anton van Leuwenhoek   invented 300x, coined term animalcules  
🗑
Prokaryotic cells   commonly known as bacteria, have no membrane bound organelles, circular DNA, very small <10 um and capsules and pilli are unique to these cells, 20 min reproduction  
🗑
Eukaryotic cells   protists, fungi, plant and animal cells, have membrane bound organelles, linear DNA, large >10 um usually 60+, 24 hour reproduction  
🗑
What to all eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells have in common   cytoplasm, ribosomes, DNA, cell membrane  
🗑
Cell wall   (Plant) forms the structure of a plant cell made of the stiff sugar cellulose, has large holes in it so that nutrients can enter and leave the cell.  
🗑
Cell membrane   (Both) forms a boundary between the inside an outside of the cell, made of a phospholipid bilayer, controls what goes into and out of the cell  
🗑
Cytoplasm   (Both) includes everything between the nucleus and the cell membrane including cytosol a liquid that has nutrients dissolved in it.(macromolecules)  
🗑
Cytoskeleton   (Both) made of microfilaments (movement), microtubules(highways for molecules) and Intermediate fibers (hold organelles in place), helps the cell move, keep its shape, and organize its parts.  
🗑
Nucleus   (Both) Organelle responsible for the organizing DNA. Controls the actions and organizations of the cell.  
🗑
Nucleolus   (Both) makes ribosomes (in nucleus)  
🗑
Ribosomes   (Both) factories the synthesis proteins (building blocks of cells), free, in cytoplasm, bound, on RER  
🗑
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum   (Both) a system of membranes that assist the in the production, processing and transporting of proteins and has ribosomes attached to the membrane.  
🗑
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum   (Both) a system of membranes that assist the in the production, processing and transporting of lipids. No Ribosomes  
🗑
Golgi Apparatus   (Both) a system of membranes that make and package materials to leave the cell. Usually repackaging thing from the ER.  
🗑
Vescicles/vacuoles   (Both) any sac that contains materials (storeroom so that things can be stored or transported)  
🗑
Lg central vacuole   (Plant) largest part of a plant cell used for storage of water and ions, it also keeps the cell from collapsing.  
🗑
Lysosomes   (Both) a vesicle that has digestive enzymes, recycles old/damaged organelles  
🗑
Mitochondria   (Both) uses sugar to recharge ATP the energy of the cell through the process of cellular respiration  
🗑
Chloroplasts   (Plant) uses CO2 and water to make sugar through the process of photosynthesis  
🗑
Centrioles/centrosome   only found in (animal cells only) made of proteins that assist in mitosis. Cellular reproduction.  
🗑
Difference between animal and plant cells   plant only (cell wall, chloroplasts, lg. central vacuole) Animal only (centrioles)  
🗑
Levels of Organization < to >   cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organism  
🗑
How is protein made and transported through cell   Nucleus(DNA blueprint for protein)>RNA(message to ribo)>Ribosome(assembles protein)>RER(modifies, packages, stores protein)>vesicle(transports)>Golgie(modifies and repackages)>vesicle>cell membrane(exports from cell)  
🗑


   

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.
