PLANT CELL Flashcards
outermost part of the plant cell
cell wall
provides support to the cell and helps prevent osmotic lysis
cell wall
modified as storage organs of the plant
bulbs
encloses the living part of the cell
plasma membrane
what is the living part of the cell
cytoplasm
a eukaryotic cell that contains a true nucleus and certain organelles that perform specific functions
plant cell
organelles only found in plant cells
chloroplast, cell wall, plastids, large central vacuole
what is the plant cell wall composed of
cellulose
three layers of the cell wall
primary, secondary, and middle lamella
controls what enters and leaves the cell
cell membrane
membrane bound structure that is only present in eukaryotic cells
nucleus
stores DNA required for cell division, metabolism, and growth
nucleus
region of the nucleus responsible for producing ribosomal RNA
nucleolus
organelle responsible for producing proteins
ribosome
membrane-bound structure that contains fluids and dissolved substances
central vacuole
for storage and sustaining turgor pressure against the cell wall
central vacuole
fluid portion of the cytoplasm
cytosol
