This selectively permeable structure controls transport, communication, and homeostasis.
What is the cell membrane
When not dividing, chromosomes are found in this uncoiled form.
What is Chromatin
This organelle packages and ships materials in vesicles for delivery inside or outside the cell.
What is the Golgi Body
These two organelles make up the cytoskeleton
What are microtubules and microfilaments
Where do proteins produced by the rough endoplasmic reticulum and get transported to?
What is the Golgi Body
These small granules synthesize proteins by joining amino acids with peptide bonds.
What are ribosomes
This organelle is responsible for making lipids and steroid hormones.
What is the smooth ER?
This dark-staining region inside the nucleus makes ribosomal RNA.
What is nucleolus
The “fluid” part of the Fluid Mosaic Model refers to this
The phospholipid Bilayer
Made of coiled tubulin, these structures form cilia, flagella, and centrioles.
What are microtubules?
These ribosomes make proteins for use inside the cell.
What are free-floating ribosomes or polysomes?
These small vacuoles move compounds around the cell or form by “blebbing” from the Golgi.
What are vesicles?
This organelle, covered in ribosomes, helps produce and modify proteins for export.
What is the Rough ER
This organelle uses energy from the sun to make energy-rich food molecules?
Chloroplast
This process in mitochondria converts glucose and oxygen into carbon dioxide, water, and energy.
What is cellular respiration?
