Organelle Functions
The Cell Membrane
Provides protection and controls what goes in/out of the cell (must say both)
This organelle generates ATP through cellular respiration.
Mitochondrion
This organelle is made up of two parts called the large and small subunits.
Ribosomes
This organelle is attached to the Rough ER and gives it the ability to synthesize proteins.
Ribosomes
What is an independent variable?
A variable that changes from trial to trial.
The Smooth ER
Drug detoxification or Lipid synthesis (can say one or the other)
This organelle builds proteins. They can be found on the Rough ER or just freely floating through the cytoplasm.
Ribosome
This organelle is very large and has an outer membrane with pores to allow entry/exit.
Nucleus
This organelle produces lipids which are then used to repair various membranes around the cell.
Smooth ER
What is the basic functional unit of life?
A cell
Generates energy in the form of ATP through photosynthesis
Vesicle
Any membrane is primarily made of this organic compound.
Lipids (Phospholipids)
This organelle provides genetic instructions used by ribosomes to produce proteins.
Nucleus
Name one way you can earn a ticket?
Answers will vary
The Lysosome
Digests wastes found around the cell
This organelle surrounds the cell membrane and gives vegetables their snap!
Cell Wall
This large storage vessel in plant cells takes up almost the entire cell.
The Central Vacuole
The golgi apparatus sorts and packages materials into these for delivery around the cell.
Vesicles
Describe homeostasis
Maintaining internal conditions.
The Nucleus
Protects/Stores genetic information (DNA)
This organelle is everything outside of the nucleus and gives the cell its shape.
Cytoplasm
This organelle contains chlorophyll which gives plants their green color.
The endosymbiotic theory states that mitochondria were once single-celled and were able to live on their own outside of eukaryotic cells.
What is one piece of evidence for this?
Mitochondria have their own DNA separate from the host eukaryotic cell.
