|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cell Wall | Only located in plant cells. Surrounds cell and gives the cell structure and support.
🗑
|
||||
| Cell Membrane | Surrounds the cell; acts as a barrier that allows substances to pass in and out of the cell.
🗑
|
||||
| Cytoplasm | Jelly-like substance outside of the nucleus where all of the organelles are contained.
🗑
|
||||
| Flagellum | Whip-like tail that helps unicellular organisms move.
🗑
|
||||
| Cilia | Hair-like projections that help unicellular organisms move (also located in our lungs, esophagus, and nose).
🗑
|
||||
| Ribosomes | Where protein synthesis takes place; made in the nucleolus.
🗑
|
||||
| Oral Groove | The cilia sweep food particles into this part of the paramecium before travelling to the gullet.
🗑
|
||||
| Lysosomes | Small, round vesicles that contain enzymes that digest cell nutrients.
🗑
|
||||
| Food Vacuoles | Storage pocket for food in paramecium.
🗑
|
||||
| Contractile Vacuoles | Storage pocket for water in paramecium and Euglena.
🗑
|
||||
| Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) | Transports materials throughout the cell and produces lipids (fats).
🗑
|
||||
| Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) | Transports materials throughout the cell and produces proteins; ribosomes attach to it.
🗑
|
||||
| Golgi Bodies | Sort and package materials such as proteins and carbohydrates into vesicles to be delivered to certain parts of the cell.
🗑
|
||||
| Mitochondria | Powerhouse of the cell; produce ATP (energy) for the cell to use.
🗑
|
||||
| Chloroplast | Only found in plant cells; convert light energy of the sun into sugars that can be used by cells.
🗑
|
||||
| Vacuoles | Vesicles in the cell that store nutrients, waste, or water.
🗑
|
||||
| DNA | Contains the genetic material and information of the cell.
🗑
|
||||
| Nucleolus | Where ribosomes are made.
🗑
|
||||
| Anal pore | Pore through which all waste exits the paramecium
🗑

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.
