Outside/Inside
This is the name of the aqueous, gelatinous filling of the cell's interior.
What is cytoplasm?
This organelle stains very darkly when viewed with the microscope and contains most of the cell's genetic material.
This organelle is covered in ribosomes, giving it a textured appearance through the microscope.
What is the rough endoplasmic reticulum?
This organelle is the POWERHOUSE OF THE CELL!!!!
What are mitochondria?
Made of tubulin dimers, this cytoskeletal feature is the cell's highway network used for transportation.
What are microtubules?
The "skin" surrounding the cell is referred to as this.
What is the cell membrane?
Located inside the nucleus, this organelle contains a special type of nucleic acid that provides instructions for producing ribosomes.
What is the nucleolus?
This organelle is the place where phospholipid and steroid molecules are produced.
What is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
What is the endosymbiont theory?
When activated by ATP, this motor protein tugs on actin fibers to make contractile movements.
What is myosin?
A cell's cytoplasm is made of this pH neutral, aqueous, gelatinous substance.
What is cytosol?
This protein-making organelle is attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
What is a bound ribosome?
Transport vesicles are carried here to deliver cargo from the endoplasmic reticula.
What is the Golgi apparatus?
This organelle contains a pigment that reacts to sunlight in order to produce energetic glucose molecules.
What is a chloroplast?
This motor protein carries transport vesicles containing precious cargo from the Golgi out to the cell membrane.
What is kinesin?
A cell's plasma membrane features a bilayer of this unique lipid molecule.
What is a phospholipid?
These organelles are the site of peptide bond formation for proteins that will be exported from the cell.
What are bound ribosomes?
This organelle contains acids and digestive enzymes to help break down food particles or invading pathogens ingested by the cell.
This is the coenzyme manufactured by the mitochondria.
What is ATP?
This motor protein is responsible for wiggling cilia and flagella as well as carrying imported vesicles to lysosomes.
What is dynein?
The possession of this barrier is a required characteristic of life.
What is a cell membrane?
This organelle would produce tubulin proteins that make up the microtubule network of the cytoskeleton in the cytoplasm.
What is a free ribosome?
When full, this organelle makes plant cells heavy, and is the reason why cell wall support is necessary for them.
What is a storage vacuole?
Mitochondria carry out this aerobic process that ultimately regenerates ATP for a cell.
What is cellular respiration?
This cytoskeletal feature, made of intermediate filaments like keratin, is a mesh net that helps the nucleus contain all of its DNA.
What is the nuclear lamina?
