17
Q

vacuoles

A

a sac-like membrane enclosed structure that stores lipids, proteins, water and carbohydrates.

18
Q

Lysosomes

A

small organelles filled with enzymes with the sole purpose of breaking down macromolecules into smaller compounds to recycle.

19
Q

cytoskeleton

A

the outside structure of a cell that gives it support.

20
Q

microfilaments

A

thread like structure made out of a protein called actin which produces a touch network of filaments

21
Q

endoplasmic reticulum

A

eukaryotic cells contain an internal membrane system that is connected to the nucleus.

22
Q

Proteins made in the rough ER

A

Include those that will be released, or secreted from the cell, or proteins that will be placed on the membrane of the cell

23
Q

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum

A

enzymes which brake down protein and packaged it the protein bound vesicles and / or vacuoles called lysosomes in the ER

24
Q

Golgi body

A

The Golgi apparatus modifies, sorts and packages proteins and other materials created the ER destined for exiting the cell
