Q

yarn-like DNA in the nucleus

17
Q

both of these organs have a double membrane

A

nucleus and mitchondria

18
Q

makes ribosomes

19
Q

makes proteins

20
Q

gives ribosomes a way to leave the nucleus

A

nuclear pores

21
Q

houses ribosomes, does not produce them, located right outside of the nucleus

22
Q

detoxifier of the cell; helps remove alcohol, makes lipids, liver has the most

23
Q

located outside of the rough ER, packages and inspects proteins

A

golgi apparatus

24
Q

side of the golgi closest to the rough ER

25
side of the golgi farthest from the rough ER
trans side
26
each individual pancake in the golgi is called
cisternae
27
powerhouse of the cell, makes ATP
mitochondria
28
ATP stands for:
adenosine triphosphate
29
folds of the mitochondria
cristae
30
vertical parts in the folds of the mitochondria
matrix
31
why are there folds inside of the mitochondria?
increases area/able to produce more energy
32
"garbage collector" of the cell, filled with enzymes to digest cell garbage
lysosome
