Cell Parts Flashcards
The smallest unit that can preform all life processes
cell
acts like a cell barrier between the inside of a cell and the cells environment
cell membrane
the organelle that contains the cells dna and is the control center of the cell
nucleus
the metrial or protolasm with a living cell excludeing the nucleus
cytoplasm
a rigid structure that surrounds the cell membrane and provides support to the cell
cell wall
They are organelles that act like a digestive system which takes in nutrients, breaks them down, and creates energy rich molecules for the cell.
Mitochondria
a plastid that contains chlorophyll and in which photosynthesis takes place.
Chloroplast
The Golgi apparatus is an organelle present in most eukaryotic cells
Golgi complex
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a type of organelle in eukaryotic cells that forms an interconnected network of flattened, membrane-enclosed sacs or tube-like structures known as cisternae
Endoplasmic reticulum
a minute particle consisting of RNA and associated proteins, found in large numbers in the cytoplasm of living cells.
Ribosome
an organelle in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells containing degradative enzymes enclosed in a membrane.
Lysosome
a space or vesicle within the cytoplasm of a cell, enclosed by a membrane and typically containing fluid
Vacuole
