Endomembrane
Plant Cells
Animal Cells
Prokaryote or Eukaryote
100
Stores and protects DNA; control center of cell
What is the nucleus?
100
Modifies, sorts and packages proteins and lipids for storage, use in the cell, use in cell membrane or transport out of the cell
What is the golgi apparatus?
100
Shapes, supports and protects plant cells and is made out of cellulose
What is the cell wall?
100
General term for structures that maintain cell shape, move cell parts and help cells move.
What is the cytoskeleton?
100
The lack of this structure creates the most important difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
What is a nucleus?
200
Makes ATP (energy) for the cell
What is the mitochondria?
200
Contain hydrolytic enzymes; acidic; digest foreign substances and worn organelles, recycle macromolecules
What are lysosomes?
200
Contains sap in plant cells; large
What is the central vacuole?
200
Made of microtubules, these fibers found only in animals help separate chromosomes during meiosis and mitosis.
What are centrioles?
200
This group has a single, circular chromosome.
What is a prokaryote?
300
Synthesize proteins
What are ribosomes?
300
Holds ribosomes that synthesize membrane or secreted proteins.
What is the RER, rough endoplasmic reticulum?
300
Converts solar energy to chemical energy stored in food
What is the chloroplast?
300
These fibers composed of actin are small and aid in division of cell cytoplasm (cell cytokinesis) and muscle contraction.
What are microfilaments?
300
This group contains membrane-bound organelles.
What is a eukaryote?
400
Synthesizes ribosomes
What is the nucleolus?
400
Synthesizes steroid hormones and other lipids; detoxifies the cell
What is the SER, smooth endoplasmic reticulum?
400
Channels that perforate adjacent plant cell walls and allow passage of some molecules from cell to cell.
What are plasmodesmata?
400
These microtubular structures have a 9 + 2 arrangement and are associated with movement of a cell.
What are flagella and cilia?
400
This junction between two animals cells makes a water-tight seal.
What is a tight junction?
500
Regulates materials entering or leaving the cell
What is the cell (plasma) membrane?
500
Transports materials between parts of the endomembrane system
What is a vesicle?
500
glue that holds plant cells together.
What is the middle lamella?
500
This junction provides channels between adjacent animal cells through which ions, sugars and other small molecules can pass.
What is a gap junction?
500
Rivet-like structures that fasten adjacent animal cells together.
What are desmosomes?
