cell
all eukaryoctic cells have the same basic membrene-bound organelles starting with the nuclues
nucleus
Cytoplasm is a thick solution that fills each cell and is enclosed by the cell membrane. It is mainly composed of water, salts, and proteins
Cytoplasm
the cell membrane is a protective layer that covers the cells surface and acts as a barrior
Cell membrane
a cell wall is a ridged structure that gives support to a cell
Cell wall
the organelle that breaks down food molecles to make atp
Mitochondrion
Chloroplasts are organelles that conduct photosynthesis, where the photosynthetic pigment chlorophyl
Chloroplast
cell orgnelle that helps make an package materials to be transported out of the cell
Golgi complex
the orgenelle that makes lipids breaks down drugs and other substances and packages proteins for golgi complex
Endoplasmic reticulum
the organelle in which amino acids are hooked together to make proteins
Ribosome
a cell organelle that contains digesstive insimes
Lysosome
A vacuole is a membrane-bound organelle which is present in plant and fungal cells and some protist, animal, and bacterial cells
Vacuole
orgenelle are structures that perform spicific functions withen the cell
Organelle
prokaryote are single celled orginisms that do not have a nucelus membrane bound orgnelles
Prokaryote
an organisim made up of cells that have nucelus and closed by membrane
Eukaryote
