Organelles and their functions
Eu look like a pro
What cells need
Those darn enzymes
Insane in the membrane
100

Nucleus

Holds the DNA

100

A light microscope with a 10X eyepiece and a 40X objective lens has this magnification

400X

100

These molecules are required to make cell membranes

Lipids or fatty acids

100

Most enzymes are made out of these acids

Amino acids

100

The cell membrane is made out of this type of bilayer

Phospholipid

200

Mitochondria

Convert sugars to ATP

200

Eukaryotes have these. Prokaryotes do not

Membranous organelles

200

This gives plants the energy to produce sugars

Sunlight

200

This three letter suffix denotes an enzyme

-ase

200

The phosphate in the membrane has this property which describes its relationship to water

Hydrophilic

300

Chloroplast

Creates sugar from sunlight

300

TEM stands for this

Transmission Electron Microscope

300

Most cells perform this process that creates water and carbon dioxide

Respiration

300

The breaking down of molecules by enzymes

Catabolism

300

Root hair cells have a long thin section which increases this property allowing them to take in more water

Surface area

400

Rough Endoplasmic reticulum

Produces ribosomes

400

These small organelles that produce produce protein can be found in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes

Ribosomes

400

This organ system removes the waste product of respiration in mammals

Respiratory system

400

These three factors affect enzyme activity

Substrate concentration, pH, temperature

400

Energy is required for this type of transport across the cell membrane

Active transport

500

Lysosome

Removes waste

500

This type of microscope scans a sample to produce an image of its surface

Scanning Electron Microscope

500

This word equation summarises photosynthesis

Carbon dioxide + water --> Glucose + oxygen

500

This enzyme causes milk to coagulate

Rennin

500

In this process a section of the membrane buds off to remove material from the cell

Exocytosis
