parts of the cell
this is referred to as the "soup" and this is where the other cell organelles reside and where most of the cellular metabolism occurs...
what is cytosol
this helps maintain cell shape and is important in motility...
what is the cytoskeleton
this produces ribosomes...
what is the nucleolus
appears pebbled because of the multiple ribosomes on its surface
what is the rough endoplasmic reticulum
this is a stack of membrane-bound structures and is important for packing macromolecules...
what is Golgi
these are common in animal cells, contain hydrolytic enzymes, and eat bacteria in the white blood cells...
what are lysosomes
pack hormones and neurotransmitters are packed into these at the Golgi Apparatus to be transferred to the cell surface for release...
what are secretory vesicles
this oranelle is enclosed in a double membrane and is responsible for holding all the cells DNA and giving the cell its unique characteristics...
what is the nucleus
animal cells DONT have this...
what is a cell wall
this is a membrane-bound sac that plays roles in intracellular digestion and the release of cellular waste products...
what is a vacuole
the area in the cell where microtubules are produced
what is the animal cell centrosome
every cell is enclosed in this...
what is the cell membrane
these are packets of RNA and protein, are in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells, and they transfer RNA...
what is Ribosomes
this is found in eukaryotic cells and plays different functions based on the specific cell types including lipid and steroid hormone synthesis and breakdown of lipid-soluble toxins in liver cells...
what is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum
found in all higher plant cells
responsible for plants green color
have a double outer membrane
what is the chloroplast
what is it that states that living organisms are made up of cells, that they are the basic structural/organizational unit of all organisms, and that all cells come from pre-existing cells.
what is the cell theory
this produces the energy cells need to function, they are a membrane-bound organelle, and some nuclei can have two of these...
what is the mitochondrion
these organelles are responsible for protecting the cell from its own production of toxic hydrogen peroxide...
what are peroxisomes
each one of these is a ring of 9 groups of fused microtubules
what is a centriole
these have highly structured cells
what are eukaryotes
