functions of cells
lysosomes
breaks down lipids, carbohydrates and proteins into small molecules
cell membrane
double layered sheet on the outside of cell called a lipid-bilayer
What are the two major parts of a eukaryotic cell?
the nucleus and cytoplasm
the powerhouse of the cell
the mitochondria
what cells do plants use for energy
chloroplasts
Golgi apparatus
builds proteins modifies, sorts and package proteins
chloroplast
cellular solar panels
Which organelle is known as the “power plants” of the cell because they transfer chemical energy from food to compounds the cell can use?
the mitochondria
double layered sheet around the cell
lipid bilayer
who coined the name "cells"
Robert Hooke
rough ER
proteins are made that will be released or secreted from the cell produces large amounts of protein for export
microfilaments
threadlike structures made up of a protein called actin
What converts light energy into chemical energy stored in food?
chloroplasts
strong supporting layer around the membrane
the cell wall
what do eukaryotes have that prokaryotes don't have
nucleas
mitochondria
converts chemical energy in food to usable compounds
cytoskeleton
network of proteins filaments
The portion of the cell outside the nucleus is called the ______?
the cytoplasm
network of protein filaments
the cytoskeleton
is the membrane found in only some cells
the cell membrane is found in all cells
microfilaments
they form extensive networks in some cells and produce a tough flexible framework that supports the cell, helps move the cell, and helps amoebas move
lysosomes
small organelles filled with enzymes
How are the functions of the vacuoles and lysosomes different?
Vacuoles function by storing various substances, while lysosomes function by using enzymes to break down various substances.
large saclike, membrane-enclosed structure
vacuole
what do cell membranes regulate
The cell membrane regulates what enters and leaves the cell and also protects and supports the cell
