Cell organelles & Structures Flashcards
Golgi body
packages and secrets the products of the cell
Endoplasmic Articulum
Pathway for the transport of materials throughout cell
mitochondria
harvests energy; known as the power house of the cell
Lysosomes
Involved in the digestion of food within the cell. It takes care of waste and recycles products for the cell.
Cell membrane
Controls movement of materials into and out of cell
Nucleus
Control center containing DNA and cell instructions
Nucleolus
Found in nucleus; RNA is released. Produces ribosomes
Chloroplast
site of photosynthesis; makes plant cells green
vacuole
Fluid filled, stores food and waste
flagela
a long single hairlike structure that helps with movement
chromosomes/chromatin
DNA
Found in the nucleus;carry genetic information
cilia
hairlike Structures on cell surface; movement
centriole
involved in cell division in animal cells
ribosome
Makes protiens
cytoskeleton
Helps with cell movement and cell shape. Fibers that support the cell and help move organelles around the cell.
peroxisome
Neutralizes: removes toxins from body
mitosis
cell division
cytoplasm
fluid, gel like substance
microfibers
small fibrous proteins(part of cytoskeleton)
microtubules
tubes make of protein
vesicle
Made of bi-lipid transportation
(2 layers)
