🗑
the control center of the cell   Nucleus  
🗑
Contains DNA (cromatin)   Nucleus  
🗑
filled with nucleoplasm   Nucleus  
🗑
contains nucleolus   Nucleus  
🗑
small structure within the nucleus   Nucleolus  
🗑
assembles ribosomes   nucleolus  
🗑
manufacture proteins either in the cytoplasm or while attached to the Rough ER   ribosomes  
🗑
gelatin like substance that all organelles float in   cytoplasm  
🗑
there are several ribosomes floating by themselves in cytoplasm, therefore there is a lot of _____ in the cytoplasm   protein  
🗑
converts simple molecules into more complex molecules   Endoplasmic Reticulum  
🗑
Acts as a transportation system   Endoplasmic Reticulum  
🗑
converts simple proteins into more complex proteins and transports them throughout the cell   Rough ER  
🗑
converts simple lipids into more complex lipids that eventually go to form parts of the cell membrane   Smooth ER  
🗑
Packages and ships certain molecules (proteins, lipids) out of the cell or to different places within the cell   Golgi Apparatus  
🗑
Looks like pancakes   Golgi Apparatus  
🗑
typically located close to endoplasmic reticulum and the cell membrane   Golgi Apparatus  
🗑
Produced by the Golgi Apparatus, contains cellular molecules that are to be transported out of the cell or to different places within the cell   Vesicles  
🗑
Membrane bound bag of cellular materials   Vesicles  
🗑
the power house of the cell   mitochondria  
🗑
site for cellular respiration (the chemical reaction whereby glucose in converted to ATP)   mitochondria  
🗑
found prolifically in cells requiring lots of energy   mitochondria  
🗑
provides the cell with shape and structure and protection from the inside of the cell   Cytoskeleton  
🗑
consists of the microtubes and microfiliments   Cytoskeleton  
🗑
little tube   microtube  
🗑
little hairlike extension in the cytoskeleton   microfiliment  
🗑
made of two layers of phospholipids   Cell Membrane

🗑
Filled with digestive enzymes that break down old cell parts and store wastes   Lysosome  
🗑
typically found in animal cells   Lysosome  
🗑
two external structures that allow for movement of the cell   Flagella and celia  
🗑
long whip like extension of the cell membrane allows swimming   flagella  
🗑
short extensions that brush things (bacteria, dust) out of the way   cilia  
🗑
Three structures that are unique to plant cells   Cell Wall, Chloroplasts, Vacuole  
🗑
provides the plant cell with shape and structure   cell wall  
🗑

🗑
provides the plant cell with green pigmentation/color due to the chlorophyll   chloroplasts  
🗑
chlorophyll allows the _____ to capture sunlight and convert it into chemical energy for the cell to use   chloroplasts  
🗑
site for photosynthesis   chloroplasts  
🗑
chemical reaction allowing the plant cell to make its food   photosysthesis  
🗑
giant storage bin for food, wastes and water   Vacuole  
🗑
Centrally located and called the central _____   Vacuole  
🗑


   

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.
