Cell Parts
This organelle contains the cell's DNA.
What is the nucleus?
Controls what enters and leaves the cell.
What is the cell membrane?
Primary function of mitochondria.
What is Cellular respiration/ATP production?
The process chloroplasts are responsible for.
What is photosynthesis?
Network of protein fibers throughout the cell.
What is a cytoskeleton?
This structure surrounds the nucleus and controls what enters and leaves.
What is the nuclear membrane?
The type of molecules that make up most of the cell membrane.
What are phospholipids?
Feature that allows enzymes to speed up chemical reactions in cellular respiration.
What is increased surface area of the inner membrane?
Captures light energy inside chloroplasts.
What are thylakoids?
Straight hollow tubes of protein that give shape and organization to the cell.
What are microtubules?
What is the nucleolus?
Allows some substances to cross while restricting others.
What is semi-permeable?
Molecule produced and used by cells for energy.
What is ATP?
Where chloroplasts are typically found.
What are plant cells and algae?
Long, thin, whip-like microtubules that help cells move.
What are flagella?
The organelle that modifies, sorts, and packages proteins for transport?
What is the golgi apparatus?
Hydrophilic heads face the watery environments; hydrophobic tails face inward.
How do phospholipids arrange themselves in a cell membrane?
Need large amounts of energy to function.
Why do cells with high energy demands generally have more mitochondria?
Mitochondria and chloroplasts have this function in common.
What organelles both convert energy the cell can use?
Microtubules that are found on the cells in your airway and dislodge debris.
What are cilia?
The order of organelles involved in creating a protein and then exporting it outside the cell.
What is ribosome, rough ER, golgi apparatus, and cell membrane?
Used in the cell membrane for cell to cell recognition, cell signaling, and transport.
What are membrane proteins?
Theory of origin of mitochondria
What is endosymbiosis?
The fluid that surrounds the thylakoids.
What is stroma?
TWO cellular processes affected by a disrupted cell cytoskeleton.
What are cell movement, organelle transport, intracellular organization, or maintenance of cell shape.
