Cells (basics-pt2 function of organelles) Flashcards
Cell membrane
allows substances to enter and leave the cell as it is selectively permeable
Chloroplasts
carries out photosynthesis by trapping sunlight
Cell Wall
supports/protects the plant cell
Cytoplasm
allows chemical reactions to take place
Mitochondrion
provides energy in the cell by carrying out respiration
Vacuole
stores water and food
Ribsomes
makes proteins
Endoplasmic Rectilium
transports protein
Golgi Apparatus
synthesizes fats in cell
Smooth Endoplasmic Rectilium
transports liquids or fats or proteins
Starch Grain
stores sugar and starch in plant cell (can be found in the cytoplasm and chloroplats)
Centrioles
form microtubules during cell division
Glycogen Granule
Sap
Stores water and sugars
Nucleus
Contains the genetic information for the cell
