quiz ?s 4&5 Flashcards
Fluid portion of the cytoplasm
cytosol
Contains genetic information; controls cell activities
nucleus
Site for assembly of ribosomes
nucleolus
Form cilia and flagella; critical to cell division for the separation of chromosomes
centrioles
Production of ATP via cellular respiration
mitochondria
Synthesis of phospholipids and carbohydrates
smooth er
Site of protein synthesis
ribosome
Produces and processes proteins that are to be exported from the cell
rough er
Storage, processing, modification, and packaging of proteins to be exported from the cell, embedded in the plasma membrane, or included in lysosomes
Golgi aparatus
Contains digestive enzymes that break down damaged organelles or substances that the cell engulfs
lysosome
Maintains cell shape and allows cell movement
cytoskeleton
Structure found only on sperm cells that allows for cell motility
flagella
Short, hair-like projections of the cell that move substances along the cell’s surface
cilia
Cell is not actively dividing; normal metabolic activities are performed; DNA replicates during this phase, but chromosomes are not visible
interphase
A series of steps resulting in division of the nucleus
mitosis
