LE - Cell Structures

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

Term
Definition
Cell membrane   present in animal and plant cells; SEMI-PERMEABLE: allows certain materials in and out of the cell, regulates what enters and leaves  
🗑
Chloroplast   present in plant cells; organelle containing chlorophyll that uses light energy to make CO2, nutrients, and water into sugars in order to make energy  
🗑
Cytoplasm   present in animal and plant cells; fluid, jelly like substance that holds the organelles and protects them  
🗑
Endoplasmic reticulum   present in animal and plant cells; carries substances like proteins through the cell. Some endoplasmic reticulums are smooth (they do not have ribosomes attached) while others are rough (they have ribosomes attached)  
🗑
Golgi body/complex/apparatus   present in animal and plant cells; receives materials from the endoplasmic reticulum and distributes them throughout the cell  
🗑
Large Vacuole   present in plant cells; stores food, water, waste, etc for the cell  
🗑
Lysosomes   present in animal cells; contains chemicals to break down certain materials and dead cells  
🗑
Mitochondria   present in animal and plant cells; known as the powerhouse of the cell, it produces the cell's energy in the form of ATP  
🗑
Nuclear Envelope   present in animal and plant cells; surrounds and protects the nucleus, allowing things in and out of the nucleus  
🗑
Nucleolus   present in animal and plant cells; makes ribosomes for the cell  
🗑
Nucleus   present in both animal and plant cells; directs all cell actions and processes, including reproduction; houses the DNA in the cell  
🗑
Ribosomes   present in animal and plant cells; place where proteins are made  
🗑
Small Vacuole   present in animal cells; transports and stores materials, such as waste products  
🗑
Cell Wall   present in plant cells only; protects the cell and gives the cell shape and structure  
🗑


   

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.
