Hint
Answer
Cells genetic control center (contains most of the cells DNA)
Nucleus
The name for the DNA in the nucleus when the cell is not dividing, when DNA is not wound up into chromosomes, It is loose and spread out. Controls what goes in and out of the nucleus.
Chromatin
Dark spot inside the nucleus that makes ribosomes. (Genes containing the instructions to make ribosomes)
Nucleolus
Assembles amino acid into chains to form proteins.
Ribosome
Barrier hold cell together.
Cell membrane
A system of interconnected tubes and sacs of membrane that often extends throughout most of the cell.
ER
Space inside the ER
Lumen
Lipid synthesis, hormones, oils and phospolipids stores calcium in muscles cells (Liver cells have lots)
Smooth ER
Transports proteins, modify proteins for export, packages certain proteins into vesicles in order to leave.
Rough ER
Modifies, sorts, and packages the products of the ER- to be secreted out of the cell or used in another organelle.
Golgi
Merge with Golgi on the side of the ER, products are modified and sent away.
Vesicle
Digests food, recycles, worn out organelles.
Lysosome
Contain enzymes used in a variety of reactions that break down lipids and destroy toxins.
Peroxisome
Store food, water, waste, pigments, poisons. (Plants have one big one and animals have several small ones)
Vacuole
Hint
Answer
How certain organelles work and communicate with each other to make either proteins or lipids. (Nucleus, ribosomes, Rough ER, Smooth ER, Golgi, Micro-tubules, Lysosomes, Vacuoles.)
Endomembrane System
The area between the nuclear membrane and cell membrane mostly water, dissolved ions, small molecules, proteins, enzymes.
Cytoplasm
The fluid that surrounds the organelles
Cytosol
Absorbs light and uses that energy to form organic molecules from CO2 and water.
Chloroplast
Cylinder(composed of micro-tubules) that is involved with cell division in animal cells.
Centriole
Shape and support the cell also act as tracks that some organelles walk (If they have motor proteins)
Micro-tubules
Reinforce cell shape and anchor certain organelles (bones of the cell)
Intermediate Filaments
Such as Actin-acid in cell movement and support cell shape
Microfiliments
Made of micro-tubules-used for movement
Cilia and Flagella
Support and protection, prevents expansion when water enters cell (Plants)
Cell wall
Lipids and proteins which forms the external boundary of the cytoplasm of a cell or encloses a vacuole, and regulates the passage of molecules in and out of the cytoplasm.
Plasma Membrane
Provides energy ATP
Mitochondria
Holds individual cells together.
Tight Junctions
Channels between the cell walls.
Plasmodesmata
