functions of a cell Flashcards
cell membrane/plasma membrane
reglulates transportation of materials in and out of cell
cell wall
provides strengh and support semi pentrable surface for molecules to pass thru
cytoplasm
medium for chemical reaction, growth is carried out here
cytosol
gives cell shape
valcuole
handles waste products
central valocule
handles waste, stores things, keeps cell in shape ONLY in plant cells
ribosomes
site of protein synthesis
rough endoplasmic reticulum
makes proteins has ribosomes
cytoskelton
helps internal organization, carrys out essential functions
peroxisome
plays role in metabolism
smooth endoplasmic recticulum
makes lipids and detoxify cell
gogli apparatus or golgi body
factory where protiens are recieved and processed
mitochrondria
powerhouse of the cell
nucleus
stores cell dna, transription and replication
nucleolus
facilitates ribosome bio genisis, inside of nucleus
lysosome
digestive system of the cell has digestive enzymes
choloroplast
conversion of sun energy to chemical energy only plant cell
centrioles
organizes microtubes for cells skeletal system
anton von leeunwenheok
first to use mircroscope
Mathias Schleiden
discovered plants made up of cells
Theodore Schwann
discovered animals made up of cells
rudolf virchow
discovered living things come from living things
parts of the cell theory
-all living things are made up of cells
-cells are the basic unit of life
-new cells produced from existing cells
prokaryotic
bacteria
