Cell Flashcards
external boundary of the cell
Cell membrane
Contains the cell contents; regulates entry & exit of materials
Cell membrane
storage of genetic material, control center for all cellular activities
Nucleus
Round mass of RNA within nucleus
Nucleolus
ribosomal RNA synthesis
Ribosomes
synthesis of proteins
Ribosomes
- lacking ribosomes
- steroid synthesis, intercellular transport, detoxification
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
Packaging of proteins produced at rough ER, formation of secretory vesicles and lysosomes
Golgi Apparatus
ATP production (through Krebs cycle and oxidation phosphorylation)
Mitochondria
Storage of proteins and other synthesized material destined for secretion
Secretory vesicles
Long hollow structures made up of tubulin
Microtubules
Long hollow structures made up of tubulin
Microtubules
