Plasma Membrane
A lipid that makes up the cell membrane.
What is a phospholipid?
The type of cell that contains a nucleus.
What is eukaryotic?
This organelle is only found on rough endoplasmic reticulum.
What are ribosomes?
This organelle converts light energy to carbohydrates.
What is a chloroplast?
Contains enzymes that break down fatty acids, detoxifies harmful substances and produces hydrogen peroxide.
What are peroxisomes?
The number of types of integral proteins in the cell membrane.
What is 5?
The nucleic acid that makes up chromosomes.
What is DNA?
Site of protein processing and modification in the endomembrane system.
What is the rough endoplasmic reticulum?
Process by which cells produce ATP.
What is cellular respiration?
Characteristic of membranes in vesicles that are the same as the cell membrane.
What is a phospholipid bilayer?
The integral proteins involved in passive transport.
What are carrier and channel proteins?
Holes in the nuclear membrane that allow for transport of ribosomal parts and proteins.
What are nuclear pores?
Site of lipid synthesis in the endomembrane system.
What is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
Organelles that are not the nucleus that have their own DNA.
What are chloroplasts and mitochondria?
Digests worn-out cell parts and unwanted foreign invaders.
What is a lysosome?
A term used to refer to transporting large molecules out of the cell.
What is exocytosis?
Part of the nucleus in which ribosomal RNA is produced.
What is the nucleolus?
The ‘shipping centre’ of the cell.
What is the Golgi Apparatus?
The part of the chloroplast that contains chlorophyll.
What is the thylakoid membrane?
Organelle that helps to produce lysosomes.
What is the Golgi Apparatus?
The three types of endocytosis.
What are phagocytosis, pinocytosis and receptor-mediated endocytosis?
The fluid part of the nucleus.
What is the nuceloplasm?
The four components of the endomembrane system.
What are the nuclear envelope, the rough ER, the smooth ER and the Golgi Apparatus?
The three types of plastids found in plant cells.
What are storage plastids, chromoplasts and chloroplasts?
The name of programmed ‘cell death’ initiated by lysosomes.
What is apoptosis?
