Manufactures products like lipids and horomones
Smooth ER
Storage space for water, salts, protein, carbohydrates, and waste
Vacuoles
Modifies, sportsman and packages proteins for storage or transport out of the cell
Golgi
Membrane bound sacs that contain digestive enzymes (protein)
Lysosomes
Separates the interior contents of the cell from the exterior environment
Cell wall
Network of protein filaments that helps the cell maintain its shape
Cytoskeleton
Contains the organelles and nutrients for the cell
Cytoplasm
Help to organize cell division from the mitotic spindle
Centrioles
Permits the entry of selective materials in and out of the cell
Cell membrane
Controls and regulates the activities of the cell and carries genes
Nucleus
Carries the genes
Chromosomes
Produces and assembles the cell’s ribosomes
Nucleolus
The site of protein assembly
Ribosomes
Battery of the cell
Mitochondria
Produce proteins for the rest of the cell to function
Rough ER
Capture energy from sunlight and convert it into chemical energy in a process called photosynthesis
Chloroplasts
The movement of materials against a concentration difference; requires energy
Active transporta
Basic unit of all forms of life
Cell
Process by which particles tend to move from an area where they are more concentrated to an area where they are less concentrated
Diffusion
The process of taking material into the cell by means of infoldings, or pockets, of the cell membrane
Endocytosis
When the concentration of the substance on both sides of the membrane is the same
Equilibrium
Organisms whose cells contain a nucleus
Eukaryote
Process by which cells release large amounts of material
Exostosis
Process of diffusion in which molecules across the membrane through membrane cells
Facilitated diffusion
