functions of a cell Flashcards
cell membrane/plasma membrane
reglulates transportation of materials in and out of cell
cell wall
provides strengh and support semi pentrable surface for molecules to pass thru
cytoplasm
medium for chemical reaction, growth is carried out here
cytosol
gives cell shape
valcuole
handles waste products
central valocule
handles waste, stores things, keeps cell in shape ONLY in plant cells
ribosomes
site of protein synthesis
rough endoplasmic reticulum
makes proteins has ribosomes
cytoskelton
helps internal organization, carrys out essential functions
peroxisome
plays role in metabolism
smooth endoplasmic recticulum
makes lipids and detoxify cell
gogli apparatus or golgi body
factory where protiens are recieved and processed
mitochrondria
powerhouse of the cell
nucleus
stores cell dna, transription and replication
nucleolus
facilitates ribosome bio genisis, inside of nucleus
lysosome
digestive system of the cell has digestive enzymes
choloroplast
conversion of sun energy to chemical energy only plant cell
centrioles
organizes microtubes for cells skeletal system
anton von leeunwenheok
first to use mircroscope
Mathias Schleiden
discovered plants made up of cells
Theodore Schwann
discovered animals made up of cells
rudolf virchow
discovered living things come from living things
parts of the cell theory
-all living things are made up of cells
-cells are the basic unit of life
-new cells produced from existing cells
prokaryotic
bacteria
eukaryotic
animals, plants, fungi protists
selective permibility
can control what leaves and enters the cell
nuclear envelope
surrounds nucleus, separating from cytoplasm
nuclear pores
where molecules leave and enter the nucleus
what are ribosomes made off
rna, protien
where are ribosomes found?
cytoplasm
how to vacuoles differ in plant and animal cells
plant cells have large central vacuole while animal cells are smaller
cell membrane also known as
mosaic
cell wall is made of
cellulose
passive transport
molecules passing thru cell membrane without use of energy
active transport
energy is needed for molecules to pass thru
3 types of passive transport
diffusion
omsosios
facilitated diffusion
molecules is phospholipid bilayer
cholestral
protein
carb
what organelle helps with movement
flagella
preforms photosynthesis
chloroplast
osmosis
the spontaneous passage or diffusion of water or other solvents through a semipermeable membrane
