Function of Cell Parts Review Flashcards
Thinnest cytoskeleton
Microfilaments
What do Cytoskeletons provide
Structure and movement to the cell
Middle Size cytoskeleton
intermediate filaments
Biggest cytoskeleton
Microtubules
Actin protein
Intermediate filaments
Various proteins
Microfilaments
Tubulin protein
Microtubule
Prevents leaks between cells
Tight junction
Allows exchange of nutrients between cells
Gap junction
Transport between cells
Plasmodesmata
attaches cells to their neighboring cells
Anchoring junctions (desmosomes)
Makes proteins
Ribosomes
Ribosomes location
Rough endoplasmic reticulum or in the cytoplasm
Where are ribosomes made
Nucleolus
Directs the function of a ribosome
DNA prokaryote (nucleoid) eukaryote (nucleus chromatin)
Strutcture
Cell wall
Sticks to surface
Capsule
Controls movement in/out
Plasma membrane
Stores most DNA
Nucleoid
Little dna specialized genes
Plasmid
Makes it sticky
Fimbrae
Used to exchange genetics
Pili
Cell movement
Flagella
Stored molecules
Inclusion
Holds organelles in place and is used for chemical reactions
Cytoplasm
Holes in the membrane and allows entry/ exit
Nuclear pores
Small sphere inside the nucleus (makes ribosomes)
Nucleolus
Double Layer monitors entry and exit
Nuclear Envelope
Tightly Coiled
Chromosome
Threadlike DNA
Chromatin
Sphere incenter controls the cell
Nucleus
Increases the Surface Area
Microvilli
