-Dense region in nucleoplasm containing Dna and RNA

Question 11

Mitochondria

Answer 11

-Double Membrane with inner membrane folds endosina (important and metabolic)
-makes ATP (for cell energy)

Question 12

Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)

Answer 12

-netowrk of channwla extending throughout the cytoplasm

Question 13

Rough ER

Answer 13

-has ribosomes bound to membranes

cillia

Answer 20

moves material in our body not for cell movement
