Organelles Flashcards
Cell membrane
It forms the boundary between inside and outside environment and it controls what enters and exits the cell
Cell Wall
It provides support an additional protection to the plant cell
Cytoplasm
It is the location of varied chemical reactions
Nucleus
It is the control center of the cell
Nuclear envelope
It’s surrounds and protects the nucleus and protects and controls what enters and exits the nucleus
Nucleolus
Is the birthplace of Ribosomes
Ribosomes
They are proteins that make protein and they are free or attached
Rough endoplasmic reticulum
It makes proteins and other cell products for export outside to cell and has ribosomes on it
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
It contains enzymes that makes parts for the cell membrane and neutralizes Toxins and other functions
Golgi apparatus
It is often called the UPS because it collects modifies and packages and ship cell products
Transport vesicle
They are small membrane-bound compartments the transport compounds around the cell
Lysosome
They are small membrane-bound structures containing digestive enzymes and other toxic chemicals such as acids
Vacuole
It’s stores cell products liquids and food and turgor pressure is water being pushed out word on the membrane of the vacoule causing turgor pressure
Chloroplast
They are the sites of photosynthesis the reaction that captures the energy of the sun to provide energy
Mitochondria
It is the powerhouse of the cell it has its own DNA called mitochondrial DNA
