|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cell Membrane | outer boundary of the cell that allows certain materials in and out of the cell.
🗑
|
||||
| Cell Wall | surrounds the cell membrane and provides structure for shape and protections
🗑
|
||||
| Cytoplasm | gel-like substance that allows nutrients and other materials to move around in the cell
🗑
|
||||
| Nuclear Membrane | a boundary that separates the nucleus and cytoplasm - it controls what enters and leaves the nucleus
🗑
|
||||
| Nucleus | controls all of the activities of the cell - contains chromosomes (DNA)
🗑
|
||||
| Nucleolus | like a small nucleus inside of the nucleus that contains (RNA) and ribosomes to make proteins
🗑
|
||||
| Endoplasmis Reticulum (ER) | transports materials in the cell
ROUGH ER is closest to the nucleus and has ribosomes stuck on it
SMOOTH ER has no ribosomes
🗑
|
||||
| Mitochondria | power house of the cell - breaks down food and releases energy (TPA) to the cell. This is called respiration.
🗑
|
||||
| Ribosomes | makes protein for the cell -- found in the nucleus (nucleolus), stuck on the rough ER, and floating free inthe cytoplasm
🗑
|
||||
| Vacuoles | storage area for the cell
🗑
|
||||
| Golgi Bodies | customize the proteins by adding carbohydrates and lipids to them to prepare them for whatever job they have to do
🗑
|
||||
| Lysosomes | contains digestive juices (enzymes) to breakdown nutrients -- if a cell is damaged the lysosomes will release their juices and destroy the cell
🗑
|
||||
| Vesicle | releases molecules out of the cell
🗑
|
||||
| Centriole | helps the cell when it is time to divide
🗑
|
||||
| Chromosomes | (genetic material located in the nucleus) blue prints for the cell
🗑
|
||||
| Cytoskeleton | the structural support system for the cell
🗑
|
||||
| Chloroplasts | (found in PLANTS) capture energy from sunlight and use it to produce food for the cell
🗑
|
||||
| Chlorophyll | green pigment found in the chloroplasts of plants, algea, and some bacteria
🗑

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.
