What is a prokaryotic cell?
Assemble amino acids into polypeptides using peptide bonds
What are ribosomes?
Regulates products entering and exiting the cell.
What is the cell membrane?
Has protein channels
What is the cell membrane?
What is the nucleus?
What is the nucleus?
Stores hydrolytic enzymes used to break down cellular waste
What are lysosomes?
Liquid part of cytoplasm
What is cytosol?
9 outer pairs of A/B microtubules and two central microtubules
What is the arrangement of cilia and flagella?
Binary fission
What method do prokaryotic cells use to reproduce?
Organelle that specifically synthesizes proteins for secretion or other membranes.
What is the rough ER?
Stores calcium ions
What is the smooth ER?
Uses vesicles to export proteins from the cell
What is exocytosis?
What are microfilaments?
Allows eukaryotic cells to have multi-specialized functions
What are membrane-bound organelles?
Produces rRNA and creates ribosomes
What is the nucleolus?
Have thylakoids and grana
What are chloroplasts?
Move substances across cell surface AND propel cell through environment (2)
What are flagella and cilia?
lysosome disfunction causes fatty substances to build up (NOT enzymes)

What is a single, circular chromosome?
Modifies, packages, and directs proteins to new places
What is the Golgi?
Have a double membrane and exist in both plant and animal cells.
What is the mitochondria?
Rely on motor proteins like kinesin and dynein for transport.
What are microtubules?
Red blood cell enzyme deficiency
