What the Organelles!
The center of the cell which acts like the brain and controls with the cell does. This contains the cell's DNA.
What is the Nucleus?
Protects the inside of the cell from the outside environment. Made up of proteins and lipids.
What is the Cell Membrane?
A jelly-like fluid, made up of mostly water, inside a cell that contains salts and other molecules. This holds the exterior in place.
What is Cytoplasm?
The movement of substances throughout the cell membrane without using the cell's energy.
What is Passive Transport?
Two membranes that contain pores and allows certain molecules to pass in and out of the nucleus.
What is the Nuclear Envelope?
The protein makers of the cell, which can be found in the cytoplasm and can be attached to the E.R.
What are the Ribosomes?
Helps remove harmful substances from a cell.
What is the Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (S.E.R.)?
A network of threadlike proteins that are joined together to help give the cell structure and shape.
What is the Cytoskeleton?
What is semipermeable?
A bumpy area of the cell that has Ribosomes attached to it and produces proteins. This is located above the S.E.R.
What is the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (R.E.R.)?
The "powerhouse of the cell". Where chemical reactions occur and energy is released.
What is the Mitochondria?
Stores food, water, and waste. Only present in some animal cells.
What are Vacoules?
The boundary that controls what enters and leaves the cell.
What is the Cell Membrane?
The "organs" of a cell.
What are Organelles?
It processes proteins and lipid molecules into packages called vesicles.
What is the Golgi Complex?
This contains enzymes and holds cells in place.
What is the Cytoplasm?
A lash like appendage that protrudes from the cell body?
What are Flagella?
The movement of small molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
What is Diffusion?
The different features that some cells have that allow them to move.
What are Cell Appendages?
Where cellular materials are broken down and recycled
What are the Lysosomes?
The large dark spot in the Nucleus that makes Ribosomes and Proteins.
What is the Nucleolus?
Slender protuberances that protect from the much larger cell body?
What are Cilia?
What is Osmosis?
Contained in the Nucleus, DNA is organized in these structures.
What are chromosomes?
