cells Flashcards
eukaryotic
all plants and animals and has to have a nucleus cell
cell well
rigid structure that gives support too a cell
cell membrane
protection barrier of the cell.
cytoskeleton
web of protein in the cytodlasm
nucleus
large structure of the cell. dna is stored here.
Ribosomes
smallest structure but most abundaut.
endoplasmic reticulum
Two types. rough ER: found by the nucleus and assists with production of protein. Smooth ER: makes lipids and breaks down toxins.
Mitochondria
Power house of the cell. breaks sugar down to make ATP (energy) play a role in apoptosis or cellular death
Golgi complex
packages and distributes proteins. Lipids and proteins are sent there to be changed for their job
Vesicles
Small sac that surrounds materials that go in or out of the cell. moves new proteins from ER to Golgi complex. Moves materials from Golgi complex to other parts of the cell
Lysosomes
Contains digestive enzymes. destroys work out or damaged structures. get rid of waste.
Vacuole
Stores water and other materials. aids in waste excretion. Helps remove toxins
Chloroplast
Found in plants and algae. where photosynthesis takes place.
cells
they make up all living things
amyloplast
Helps plants to sense gravity synthesize starch
