Q

Cell Membrane

A

Surrounds the cytoplasm, provides protection and a fixed environment inside the cell, transports nutrients into the cell, and toxic substances out of the cell

Q

Ribosomes

A

Primarily responsible for protein synthesis; they translate the genetic code carried by messenger RNA (mRNA) into a chain of amino acids, which then fold to form proteins

17
Q

Endoplasmic Reticulum

A

Primarily responsible for synthesizing proteins and lipids, modifying and folding proteins, and transporting molecules throughout the cell

18
Q

Golgi Apparatus

A

Processes, sorts, packages, and transports proteins and lipids.

19
Q

Vacuoles

A

Stores water, starches, nutrients, waste products, and pigments, maintain cell turgor pressure, particularly in plant cells, by regulating water content and providing structural support.

20
Q

Cell Wall

A

Provides structural support, allowing cells to maintain their shape and resist external forces. They also protect the cell from viruses

21
Q

Cytoplasm

A

Acts as the gel-like fluid inside a cell, providing a medium for molecule transport between organelles, and maintaining cell shape

22
Q

Cytoskeleton

A

Provides structural support for a cell, maintaining its shape, and enabling cell movement by facilitating the transport of organelles and vesicles within the cell

23
Q

Nucleus

A

Functions as the control center of the cell by storing and protecting the cell’s genetic material (DNA), and directing various cellular activities like growth, division, and differentiation

24
Q

Nucleolus

A

Produces and assembles ribosomes, the cellular structures responsible for protein synthesis

25
Centrioles
Play a crucial role in cell division by separating chromosomes during mitosis
26
Lysosomes
Break down waste materials, worn-out cell parts, and foreign substances like bacteria by using digestive enzymes
27
Mitochondria
Produces the cell's energy, essentially acting as the "powerhouse" of the cell by converting nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
28
Chloroplasts
Primary function is to carry out photosynthesis, the process of using sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to produce glucose and oxygen
