Cellular Organelles
Command center of the cell
Nucleus
Controls what gets into and out of the cell
Cell Membrane
Transport System of the cell
Endoplasmic Reticulum
The cell membrane is made of these three things.
Phospholipids, Carbohydrates, Proteins
Molecules are transported across the cell membrane by this...
Carrier Proteins
Organelle in the nucleus that makes ribosomes
Nucleolus
DNA in the form of chromosomes is here
Nucleus
Protein Synthesis happens here for both prokaryotes and eukaryotes
Ribosomes
Passive transport involves the movement of molecules from areas of ________ to _________ concentration.
High to Low
Movement of substances into the cell.
Endocytosis
Bunches of cells that make a whole slew of proteins
Ribosomes
Storage tank of the cell
Vacuoles
Powerhouse of the Cell (aka the "Mom" of the cell)
Mitochondria
This type of diffusion occurs where carrier proteins help molecules across the membrane.
Facilitated Diffusion
Active transport that moves substances out of the cell.
Exocytosis
Conducts PHOTOSYNTHESIS for plant cells
Chloroplast
Collects, Packages, and Distributes Proteins
Golgi Body
Contains digestive enzymes to break down old cell parts
Lysosomes
Type of diffusion involving only the movement of water molecules.
Osmosis
Movement of solid particles into the cell.
Phagocytosis
Boundary organelle outside of the cell membrane that is made of cellulose (plants) or chitin (fungi)
Cell Wall
Conducts RESPIRATION for the cell
Mitochondria
Assists in cell division in animal cells
Centriole
Transport that requires energy.
Active Transport
Movement of liquids into the cell.
Pinocytosis
