Chapter 7 Test Flashcards
Stores material within the cell
Vacuole
Contains chlorophyll, a green pigment that traps energy from sunlight and gives plants their green color
Chloroplast
The sites of protein synthesis
Ribosomes
Transports material within the cell
Vesicles
The region inside the cell except for the nucleus
Cytoplasms
Organelle that manages or controls all the cell functions in a eukaryotic cell
Nucleus
Digests excess or worn- out cell parts, food particles and invading viruses or bacteria
Lysosomes
Small bumps located on portions of the endoplasmic reticulum
Ribosomes
Firm, protective structure that gives the cell its shape in plants, fungi, most bacteria and some protest
Cell wall
Produces a useable form of energy for the cell
Mitochondria
Packages proteins for transport out of the cell
Golgi apparatus
Everything inside the cell including the nucleus
Organelles
Site where ribosomes are made
Nucleolus
Small hair-like structures used for movement or sensing things
Cilla
Composed of a phospholipid bilayer
Cell membrane
Longer whip-like structures used for movement
Flagella
Name for collection of DNA in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells
Chromatin
Consist of hollow tubes which provide support for the cells
Microtubules
Threadlike structures made up of a protein called actin
Microfilaments
What is the endoplasmic reticulum
(ER) were the lipid components of the cell membrane are assembled
What is the control center of a cell
Nucleus
Hollow structures made up of proteins known as tubulins
Microtubules
What’s the difference between smooth Er and Rough Er
Smooth Er don’t have ribosomes on the surface and rough ER has ribosomes on its surface
What is diffusion
The process by which particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration
