module 2, lesson 1 Flashcards
golgi body
final assembly, transport and packaging of materials, mostly for secretion from cell 
rough endoplasmic reticulum
synthesis, transport and packaging of proteins
centrioles
cylindrical organelle that occurs in pairs; involved in the development of spindle fibers
centrosome
contains centrioles
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
synthesis, transport and packaging of carbohydrates and lipids
peroxisome
detoxify harmful toxins like alcohol and hydrogen peroxide
mitochondrion
site of aerobic (oxygen requiring) steps of cellular respiration (breakdown glucose to make ATP)
nuclear membrane
double layer membrane; outer boundary of nucleus
nucleolus
assembles ribosomes
secretory vesicle
export materials via exocytosis
lysosome
digestion within the cell of large molecules into their simpler components
cytosol
aqueous part of cytoplasm
cell membrane (plasma membrane)
regulates passage of materials into and out of the cell (selectively permeable)
interphase
period of general cell growth and DNA replication
prophase
nuclear membrane disappears, nucleolus disappears, chromatin condenses into chromosomes, spindle apparatus forms
