Cell Structure

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   a layer that surrounds the cell, this provides structure and protection, it is semi-permeable  
🗑
Cell wall   found only in the plant cell and provides extra structure and protection for the plant  
🗑
Centriole   are contained in the centrosomes and help the cell to divide during mitosis  
🗑
Centrosome   create microtubules  
🗑
Vacoules   provide storage for the cell for materials such as water, there is only one in the plant cell and it is larger, whereas in the animal cell there are many small ones  
🗑
Vesicles   small storage organelles that move material in and out of the cell  
🗑
Endoplasmic Reticulum - Smooth   makes lipids and modifies proteins that are then transported throughout the cell  
🗑
Endoplasmic Reticulum - Rough   has ribosomes bound to its membrane  
🗑
Ribosomes   are the site of protein synthesis  
🗑
Cytoplasm   the gel that fills the cell and helps to maintain the pressure inside the cell  
🗑
Golgi Body / Complex/ Apparatus   packages proteins and carbohydrates into vesicles for transport out of the cell  
🗑
Mitochondria   nicked named the powerhouse of the cell because they provide energy for the cell, it is also the site of cellular respiration  
🗑
Nucleus   is the control center of the cell, it directs many of the functions of the cell and holds the DNA  
🗑
Nucleolus   is inside of the nucleus and aids in the production of protein  
🗑
Lysosome   is the digestive system of the cell, it helps to break down waste molecules  
🗑
Chloroplasts   converts light energy from the sun into sugar that can be used by the plant cell for energy through the process of photosynthesis  
🗑


   

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.
