Organelles I
This organelle is called the "powerhouse of the cell" because it creates the ATP energy used by the body.
What is the mitochondria?
This macro is what you OMIT when you begin a low-carb or keto diet.
What is sugar/carbs?
This organelle contains the DNA.
This macro is first used by the body to produce energy.
What is sugar/carbohydrates?
The first people likely originated on this continent.
What is Africa?
This type of cell stores leftover sugars, fats, and proteins as liquid fat droplets.
What is a fat cell /adipocyte?
This macro is a type of protein that MAKES something, gives it a shape.
What is a structural protein?
This structure supports and protects the contents of the cell from the outside environment and helps maintain its shape.
What is the cell membrane? (Phospholipid bilayer / Plasma membrane)
This macro is a type of protein that DOES something.
What is a functional protein?
6x -2x -2y = 0 Solve for y
2y = 4x
/2 /2
y = 2x
This creates unusable proteins (amino acid chains/polypeptides) for the body.
What are the ribosomes?
This is the major component of all membranes.
What is fat/lipid?
This folds and packages unusable proteins into useful proteins and sends them out of the cell.
What is the golgi apparatus?
Amino acids are the building blocks (monomers) of this polymer.
What are proteins?
This man is the British Prime Minister in 2021.
Who is Boris Johnson?
This creates ribosomes in the cell.
What is the nucleolus?
This sits inside the cell membrane and acts as a receptor for smaller molecules to get into/out of the cell. It is a lock and key system. If it doesn't recognize you, you won't get in.
What are protein receptors/proteins/protein channels/glycoproteins?
This creates fat in the cell.
What is the smooth ER?
Nucleotides are the monomers of this polymer.
What are nucleic acids?
This time was a broad prehistoric period during which stone was widely used to make tools with an edge, a point, or a percussion surface
What is the Stone Age?
This is the two-word name for the double layer outer structure of the cell membrane, vacuoles, and vesicles.
What is phospholipid bilayer?
Naming convention for this type of molecule includes words with an -in suffix such as melanin, keratin, actin, myactin, leptin, and pepsin.
What are proteins?
This is a membranous sac filled with digestive enzymes that destroy the organelle while digesting unwanted toxins.
What is a lysosome?
What are sugars/carbs?
En espanol, es "la mesa."
Como se dice "the table" en espanol?
