cell structure and function

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
eukaryotic cells   fungi, plants, 10-100 micrometers, nucleus with envelope, 80s, flagella/cilia made of tubulin, cytoskeleton, 1-100 mitochondria, chloroplasts in algae and plants, multi-cellular, mitosis.  
🗑
prokaryotic cells   bacteria, 1-10 micrometers, no nucleus, 70s, few structures, flagellae/cilia made of flagellin, no mitochondria, no chloroplasts, single celled,simple division.  
🗑
cell membrane   controls what enters/leaves the cell.  
🗑
cytoplasm   everything within the cell membrane- cytosol and organelles.  
🗑
nucleus   holds DNA in it, contains a nucleolus.  
🗑
nuclear envelope   has pores so proteins and mRNA can pass through it. double membrane.  
🗑
mitochondria   site of respiration. uses ATP. inner membrane of it has many fold, called cristae.  
🗑
ribosomes   site of protein synthesis.  
🗑
rough ER   has ribosomes on the outer side of it, site of protein synthesis.  
🗑
smooth ER   where proteins are prepared for secretion, where polypeptides are converted into functional proteins.  
🗑
golgi apparatus   processes proteins, packages them and secretes them. adds carbohydrates to them. pinches off vesicles.  
🗑
lysosomes   site of protein digestion, formed pieces of golgi.  
🗑
cytoskeleton   maintains the shape of the cell, serve as tracks for organelles to move along within the cell, they form the centriole.  
🗑
centriole   two bundles of microtubules at right angles to each other.  
🗑
cilia and flagellae   assist movement,keep bacteria from entering the body.  
🗑
cell wall (plant cells)   freely permeable, rigid- helps to support and protect the plant.  
🗑
vacuoles (plant cells)   large membrane bound sac, storage area for waste  
🗑
chloroplasts (plant cells)   thylakoids which contain chlorophyll, arranged in stacks called granum, space in-between- stroma.  
🗑

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.
