cell parts Flashcards
(23 cards)
nucleolus
plant and animal
site of ribosome production
nucleus
plant and animal
control center for the rest of the cell and coded direction for protein
mitochondria
animal
a membrane bound organelle that makes energy for the rest of the cell
chloroplast
plant
a double membrane organelle with thylakoids containing chlorophyll where photo synthesis takes place
central vacuole
plant
stores more than a vacuole
smooth ER
plant and animal
provides a membrane surface where a variety of carbs and lipids are synthesized
cell theory
a. all living things are composed of cells
b. cells are the basic unit of structure and organization in life
c. cells arise from existing cells
cell membrane
plant and animal
allows certain substances in while keeping others out
vacuole
plant and animal
a membrane bound vesicle for the temporary storage of materials
cytoplasm
plant and animal
gel-like substance enclosed within the cell membrane excluding the nucleus
centrosome
plant and animal
the building and breaking of microtubules in the cell
Golgi body
receives material from the endoplasmic reticulum and sends to other pars of the cell
Robert Hooke (1665)
used simple microscope
saw and named the cell
nuclear membrane
plant and animal
in and out of movement of substances in a cell
nuclear pores
plant and animal
allows large sized substances to move through them
endoplasmic reticulum
plant and animal
rough and smooth ER
lysosomes
animal
breaks down worn out cellular substance
microtubules
plant and animal
form rigid skeleton assist more substances in and out of the cell
rough ER
plant and animal
highly folded membrane that is the site of protein synthesis
Leeuwenhoek (1683)
saw living things in pond water
cell wall
plant only
an inflexive barrier that provides support and protects the plant
golgi
plant and animal
modifies and redistributes protein
ribosome
plant and animal
organelle that is the site of protein synthesis
