Functions
a thin flexible barrier in all cells that controls what enters and leaves the cell
What is the cell membrane
This organelle provides support and protection for the cell and is located on the outside of a plant cell.
What is on the outside
Which type of cell has a large, central vacuole?
What is a plant cell?
Organisms that have a nucleus and membrane bound organelles
What are Eukaryotes?
Modifies, sorts, and packages proteins
What is the Golgi Apparatus
The jelly like fluid that fills the empty space in a cell
What is the Cytoplasm?
cell organelle that makes proteins, found on rough ER or in cytoplasm
What are ribosomes?
What type of cells contain Centrioles?
What is an animal cell?
What controls most of the cell processes and contains the hereditary information of DNA?
What is the nucleus
Where is the the double-membrane layer dotted with thousands of nuclear pores located?
What is around the nucleus
Dense area inside of the nucleus where ribosomes are made
What is a nucleolus?
The main difference between plant and animal cells
What is the plant cell has a cell wall
The organelle that has ribosomes located on it.
What is the rough endoplasmic reticulum?
A cellular highway. There are two versions, rough and smooth.
What is the Endoplasmic Reticulum
This organelle is a network of proteins that gives a cell shape. Helps in movement
What is the cytoskeleton?
Cells without a nucleus
What are prokaryotes?
There are trillions of these units in you.
What are cells?
The cell organelle that uses energy from food to make high-energy compounds (ATP) that the cell can use to power growth, development, movement.
What is the Mitochondrion
Specialized structure that performs a specific job for cells
What is an organelle?
Stores materials such as water, salts, and proteins in cells
What are vacuoles/vessicles?
Cells that have organelles that use energy from the sun to make energy-rich food molecules
What are plant cells?
Created the term, "cell" to describe cork when seen under a microscope
