Question | Answer |
Organelles. | Specialized structures in a cell that carry out functions. |
Semi-permeable (allows certain things in and out of the cell), helps maintain homeostasis. | Cell/Plasma membrane. |
Granular, fluid-like material, all organelles are suspended in it. | Cytoplasm. |
Contains DNA, controls the cells' metabolism and reproduction. | Nucleus. |
Selectively permeable double structure that surrounds the nucleus, has pores. | Nuclear membrane. |
Structure within the nucleus that is involved in the synthesis of the RNA, produces ribosomes. | Nucleolus. |
Intercellular transport. | Endoplasmic Reticulum. |
Cite of protein synthesis. | Ribosomes. |
Releases energy for the cell, site of aerobic respiration, ATP is made here. | Mitochondria. |
. (Post office/shipping center), shipping, packaging, processing, exporting. | Golgi Body/Complex/Apparatus |
Contain digestive enzymes, break down worn out cell organelles, kills bacteria. | Lysosome. |
Stores food and wastes. | Vacuoles. |
Cell division, animal cells only. | Centrioles. |
Only in plant cells, gives the cell its shape, outside of the cell membrane. | Cell wall. |
Found only in plant cells, contain the pigment chlorophyll, sites of photosynthesis. | Chloroplasts. |
Gives the cell its shape, involved in the movement of chromosomes during cell division. | Microtubules. |
. Long, solid, thread-like, involved in cell division. | Microfilaments |
Tiny beating hairs for locomotion. (Ex:Paramecium) | Cilia. |
Long whip-like tail involved in locomotion. (Ex: Sperm cell) | Flagella. |
Three parts of the cell theory. | 1. Cells are the structural unit of living things. 2. Cells are the functional unit of living things. 3. Cells come only from pre-existing cells. |
Exceptions to the cell theory. | 1. Viruses are not made up of cells. 2. Mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own DNA and can duplicate themselves. 3. The first cells must have arisen from non-cellular structures. |
Discovered one-celled organisms and sperm cells. | Anton Van Leeuwenhoek. |
Examined slices of cork and other plant materials with the compound microscope, named the cell. | Robert Hooke. |
Discovered the nucleus. | Robert Brown. |
Stated that all plants were composed of cells. | Mathhias Schleiden. |
Stated that animal tissues were also composed of cells. | Theodor Schwann. |
Stated that all cells arise from pre-existing cells. | Rudolph Virchow. |
