Chapter 6 Cell Parts Flashcards
(23 cards)
A rigid structure made up of cellulose and sugars on the outside of certain cells
Cell wall; plant cells
A semipermeable membrane between the cell contents and either the cell wall or the surroundings to protect
Plasma membrane; both
Jellylike fluid inside the cell and holds the organelles
Cytoplasm; both
The organelle in which nutrients are converted to energy
Mitochondria; both
Organelle responsible for hydrolysis reactions that break down proteins, polysaccharides, disaccharides, and some lipids
Lysosomes; animal cell
Non- membrane bound organelle responsible for protein synthesis
Ribosome; both
Keeps the shape in ____1__ cells and transports molecules in ___2___ and ___3___ cells
Endoplasmic reticulum; 1. Animal 2. Animal 3. Plant
Have ribosomes and is part of protein synthesis
Rough ER; both
No ribosome and make lipids; inactivated harmful byproducts of digestion and respiration
Smooth ER; both
Stores starches and or oils
Leucoplasts; plant cells
Contain pigment for photosynthesis
Chromoplasts; plant cells
A large sac that rests at the center of most plant cells filled with a solution that contains a high concentration of solute
Central vacuole; plant cells
Contains non toxic waste products of digestion
Waste vacuole; both
Holds and stores food
Food vacuole; both
Regulate the amount of water in a cell
Contractile vacuole; both
Forms around a food substance that was too big to get through the membrane and begins digestion
Phagocytic vacuole; both
Forms at the membrane to allow the absorbtion of larger molecules
Pinocytic vesicle; both
Stacked pancake shaped organelle where proteins and lipids are stored and then modified to suit the needs of the cell
Golgi bodies; both
Travel to the membrane and secretes the chemicals the cell wants to send out
Secretion vesicle; both
Form flagellum and perform asexual reproduction in cells
Centrioles; mostly animal cells
Holds the cells main DNA that tells the cell everything it needs to know
Nucleus; both
A network of fibers that holds the cell together and helps the cell keep its shape and aids in movement
Cytoskeleton; both
In the nuclear membrane where RNA is made
Nucleolus; both
