LAB 5 Flashcards
Stack of membranous saccules; functions in processing, packaging, and distribution of molecules
Golgi Apparatus
Membranous sacs; storage and transport of substances
Vesicles
Have a double membrane; responsible for cellular respiration and production of ATP molecules
Mitochondria
Particles that carry out protein synthesis
Ribosomes
Outer surface that regulates entrance and exit of molecules
Plasma membrane
Region in nucleus that produces subunits of ribosomes
Nucleolus
Short cylinders, present in centrosomes, of unknown function
Centrioles
Central body, having diffuse threads of DNA and protein
Nucleus
Vesicle that digests macromolecules and even cell parts
Lysosome
Composed of microtubules, actin filaments, and intermediate filaments; responsible for the shape of the cell and the movement of its parts
Cytoskeleton
Membranous saccules and canals having no ribosomes; synthesize lipid molecules
Smooth ER
The random movement of molecules from the area of higher concentration to the area of lower concentration until they are equally distributed.
Diffusion
Consists of a liquid solvent and dissolved particles called solutes
Solution
The diffusion of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane
Osmosis
A form of channel proteins
Aquaporins
