Plasma Membrane

A

Outer cell membrane separating internal and external environments.

22
Q

Prokaryotic Cells

A

Single-celled organisms without enclosed nucleus. ex - bactera

23
Q

Ribosomes

A

the basis of protein that cells use to build protein

24
Q

Robert Hooke

A

Discovered cells using a cork and microscope.

25
Rough ER
ER with ribosomes synthesizing proteins for export.
26
Rudolf Virchow
Proposed all cells arise from pre-existing cells.
27
Smooth ER
ER involved in lipid and steroid hormone synthesis. chemical reaction speed this up
28
Theodore Schwann
Claimed all animals are composed of cells.
29
Vesicles
Membrane-bound sacs transporting substances within cells. I.e - transports proteins from the rough er to the golgi apparatus
30
Vacuole
stores water like water sails proteins and carbs
