Movement appendage containing microtubules and covered in an extension of the plasma membrane.
What is flagella?
Eukaryotes that lack a cell wall.
What are protozoa?
Vesicle containing particles to be digested, excreted, or stored.
What is vacuole?
Puts together proteins for the cell; composed of rRNA and protein.
What is ribosome?
Composed of two parallel membranes separated by a narrow space; perforated with pores
What is the nuclear envelope?
Shorter and more numerous than flagella; roles in motility, feeding, and filtering.
What are cilia?
Contain DNA and ribosomes; produce and store cellular energy (ATP).
What are mitochondria?
Contains chlorophyll in thylakoid stacks (grana) and traps energy from sunlight.
What is chloroplast?
Synthesizes rRNA; site of ribosome assembly.
What is nucleolus?
What is cell membrane?
Eukaryotes that contain a cell wall.
Rough, bumpy appearance due to attached ribosomes; site of protein synthesis.
What is rough endoplasmic reticulum?
Genetic material found within the nucleus.
What are DNA chromosomes?
Rigid structure made of chitin, cellulose, pectin, mannans, or other substances.
What is the cell wall?
Provide stability to the phospholipid bilayer.
What are sterols?
What is Golgi apparatus?
Anchor organelles, transports RNA and vesicles, allows cell to change shape and move, provides structural support to cell.
What is cytoskeleton?
Organelle that originates from the nuclear envelope and extends through the cytoplasm.
What is the endoplasmic reticulum?
Outermost boundary of cell composed of polysaccharides; roles in adherence, protection, and signal reception.
What is glycocalyx?
Largest component of cytoskeleton made of tubulin protein.
What are microtubules?
Closed tubular network that synthesizes and stores lipids; detoxifies metabolic waste.
What is smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
