Cells Flashcards
Eukaryotes?
Plants, animals, and Protists
Nucleus?
Acts as a storage for genetic DNA controls cells activities (brain)
Nucleolus?
Makes parts to build DNA
Nuclear membrane?
Separates contents from nucleus from cytoplasm
Cell wall?
Support, protection, gas and water exchange
Cell membrane?
Ministers what goes in and out of the cell
Capsule?
Additional outer covering that protects and gives shape
Cytoskeleton?
Shape, support, aids in movement
Ribosome?
Consist of RNA and makes proteins
Rough endoplasmic reticulum
Production of proteins, has ribosomes
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
No ribosomes, breaks down carbs and manufactures lipids
Mitochondria?
Breaks down sugar products molecules into energy
Chloroplast?
Uses energy from sun to create food
Lysosomes?
Breaks down old or unneeded parts of the cell (digester)
Vacuole?
Large fluid-filled space that helps cell maintains shape and storage for food water and waste
