Q

Cell theory

A

All living organisms are made of one or more cells
Cells are the basic units of structure and function
Cells come only from pre-existing cells

Q

Membrane proteins

A

Cell membranes often contain proteins embedded within the phospholipid bilayer

16
Q

Fluid mosaic model

A

States that the phospholipid bilayer acts more like a fluid than a solid

17
Q

Nuclear envelope

A

Surrounds a nucleus with a double membrane

18
Q

Nucleolus

19
Q

Mitochondria

A

Harvest energy from organic compounds and transfer it to ATP cellular respiration

20
Q

Ribosomes

A

Either free or attached to the rough ER and play a role in protein synthesis

21
Q

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum

A

Builds lipids and participates in detoxification of toxins

22
Q

Rough endoplasmic reticulum

A

Prepares proteins for export or insertion into the cell membrane, has ribosomes

23
Q

Golgi apparatus

A

Processes and packages proteins

24
Vesicles
Anything that contains something
25
Lysosomes
Digestive enzymes
26
Peroxisomes
Detoxification enzymes
27
Protein synthesis
Rough ER, Golgi apparatus, and vesicles work together to transport proteins to their destinations inside and outside of the cell
28
Cytoskeleton
Made of protein fibers that help cells move and maintain shape
29
Cilia and flagella
Hairlike structures that extend from the surface of the cell where they assist in movement
30
Centrioles
Organize the micro tubules of the cytoskeleton during cell division
31
Cell wall
A rigid layer that surrounds the plants plasma membrane
32
Central vacuole
A large fluid filled organelle that contains water and enzymes
33
Plastids
Surrounded by a double membrane and contain DNA
34
Chloroplasts
Use light energy to make carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water
