Cells Flashcards
(23 cards)
Golgi apparatus
Packages and exports proteins and modification
Ribosome
Protein production (synthesis proteins)
Nucleolus
Ribosome production receive signaling molecules
Microtubules
Allows movement of organelles within cell
Cell membrane
Controls what molecules enter and exit cell
Rough endoplasmic reticulum
Transports proteins, proteins are made and receive signaling molecules
Centriole
Cell division
Transport vesicles
Shuttles proteins between organelles
Mitochondria
Converts the energy from nutrients into ATP (energy)
Flagella
Allows the cell to move in space
Nucleus
Controls cell function and site of genetic information storage
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
Synthesis and transport of lipids
Cell wall
Shapes plant cells
Lysosome
Digestion of food vacuoles and damages organelles
Microfilament
Allows contraction and movement of cells
Chloroplast
Converts solar energy to energy useable by the cell
Central vacuole
Storage of water, chemicals and wastes in plant cells
Chromosome
Genetic information storage, located in nucleus
Intermediate filaments
Anchors organelles, holds nucleus in place
Organelle
General name for structures in the cytoplasm
Secretory vesicles
Released by the Golgi apparatus, travels to the surface of the cell to release it’s contents
