Cell Parts and Functions (cells outcome) Flashcards
Nucleus
(location E)
Contains and protects genetic material (DNA)
DNA / chromosomes
(location E)
Information for making proteins
Endoplasmic Reticulum
(location B)
Transports and finishes proteins and other biological molecules
Mitochondria
(location H)
Convert glucose to CO2 and in the process charges ATP for general energy needs in the cell.
Golgi Apparatus
(location C)
Packages proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates into vescicles and sends them to their destination (usually membrane or cell exterior)
Cytoplasm
(location G)
Space for cell work to be done - a watery chemical soup surrounding other organelles.
Cell Membrane
(location D)
Keeps insides in, outside out - determines what compounds are allowed to enter or exit the cell.
Ribosomes
(location F)
Make proteins
Sequence of Protein Creation
DNA/Nucleus to Ribosome to ER to Golgi to Cell Membrane
