Organelle function 1
This organelle works as a barrier in animal cells, letting certain materials pass through.
What is a cell membrane?
This organelle is a storage unit, storing waste, food, energy, etc..
What is a vacuole?
This organelle is where protein synthesis begins.
What is the nucleus?
The central dogma of biology.
What is replication, translation, transcription?
This organelle works as a barrier in plants cells, letting materials of a certain shape and size pass through it's pores.
What is a cell wall?
This organelle, unique to plant cells, converts sunlight into useable energy and is often responsible for the green color of plants.
What is a chloroplast?
Adenine, Thymine, Cytocine, and Guanine are all examples of the following.
What is nitrogen bases?
What is Uracil?
This organelle is the director of the cell, and includes all genetic information for the cell.
What is the nucleus?
This organelle is made of Rrna and is where protein synthesis occurs.
What is a ribosome?
This gets sent from the nucleus to the ribosomes to be transcribed into proteins.
What is mrna?
In the oobleck lab, the oobleck being poured into the mold represented what process?
What is protein synthesis?
This organelle is the packaging center of the of the cell, repackaging and distributing proteins throughout the cell as needed.
What is the golgi apparatus?
This organelle is partly responsible for protein and lipid synthesis throughout the cell, and is a part of the nucleus's membrane.
What is the endoplasmic reticulum?
This is what reads the Nitrogen bases on mrna to synthesize proteins.
What is trna?
These are the groups of three nucleotides (nitrogen bases) that are read by trna.
What is a codon?
This organelle is the powerhouse of the cell, and is responsible for all energy production and conversion.
What is the mitochondria?
This organelle seeks out viruses and old, dead organelles and disposes of them approporiately.
What is a lysosome?
This is the name of the enzyme that "reads" DNA.
These are the building block chains that make up proteins (hint, they are dropped off by trna).
What is amino acids?
