The liquid inside a cell that suspends the organelles in the cytoplasm.
What is Cytosol?
A network of tubes that plays the central role in protein synthesis.
What is the rough endoplasmic reticulum?
what are lysosomes?
A double membrane that surrounds the nucleus. This membrane is porous to allow some materials access to the nucleus and to keep some materials out.
What is the Nuclear Envelope?
A pill shaped organelle that produces ATP through cellular respiration.
What is the mitochondria?
Located in the nucleus, responsible for condensing DNA and proteins during mitosis into chromosomes.
What is Chromatin?
A network of tubes that are involved with the processing and synthesis of proteins. Once the proteins are processed it is this organelles job to distribute the finished product to specific areas in the cell or to dispose of it outside the cell.
What is the Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum?
What are peroxisomes?
A rounded organelle that is often referred to as the brain of the cell because it holds genetic information.
What is the Nucleus?
A finger-like projection on the surface of a cell.
What are Microvilli?
A cylindrical organelle that is mainly made up of a protein called tubulin.
What are Centrioles?
A flat ribosome-free organelle that packages proteins in a cell.
What is the Golgi Apparatus?
A small organelle that possesses RNA and Protein and can attach to the Endoplasmic Reticulum.
What are Ribosomes?
A small spherical structure that is the key location for ribosome production.
What is the Nucleolus?
Many small rod-like structures that help form the cytoskeleton.
What are Microfilament?
Assists in the formation and organization of micro- tubules and help with the stability of the cell.
What is the Centrisome Matrix?
This is the part of the cell that you are feeling when you touch your skin.
What is the Phospholipid Bi-Layer?
A DNA molecule containing all or most of the genetic material possessed by an organism.
What are Chromosomes?
How many nucleus are located in a cell?
What is One Nucleus?
A fibrous, hallow rod that exist to give a cell its shape and to provide routes for organelles to move freely throughout the cytoplasm.
What are Microtubules?
These are mainly used for movement with organelles that travel in cells and have an appearance of looking like multiple tiny legs.
What are Cilia?
This makes a plant cell stiff while an animal cell is rounded?
What is the Cell Wall?
A large, complex molecular machine found in the nucleus of a cell.
What is a spliceosome?
The substance found inside the nucleus that holds the nucleolus inside of it.
What is nucleoplasm?
Provides mechanical support for the plasma membrane, this does not help or affect the mobility of the cell.
What is the Intermediate Filament?
