Q

What is a plasma (cell) membrane?

A

Wraps around the cell, enclosed the nucleus and cytoplasm of the cell, found in both pro and eukaryotes cells , made up of two fatty layer called lipid bilayer, controls movement of substance in and out of cell

Q

What is the cell wall?

A

Found in both eu and prokaryotes cell (plant and Most bacteria and some protist not animal), surrounds the outside of the plasma membrane, made up of sugars

Q

What is a nucleus?

A

Contains DNA, place where mitosis occurs, DNA controls the function of the cell and produces proteins, contains nucleoli where RNA forms ribosomes in the cytoplasm

Q

What are proteins

A

They do most of the work in cells and are required for the regulation of the body’s tissue and organs. Some functions include antibody(fight infections), enzyme (perform chemical reaction), structural, transport

16
Q

What is the endoplasmic reticulum?

A

An organelle, that is made up of passageway to carry protein and other material from one part of the cell to another

17
Q

What are two of the endoplasmic reticulum?

A

Smooth ER (no ribosomes makes lipids) rough ER ( ribosomes are presents)

18
Q

What is the Golgi body?

A

Looks like flattened stacks, receives proteins and lipids from the ER, packages them into VESICLES and distributes them throughout the cell

19
Q

What are lysosomes?

A

Comes from VESICLES made by the Golgi body, contains digestive chemicals that help break down food, debris and bacteria

20
Q

What is the mitochondria?

A

Carries out celluar respiration using carbohydrates and fats in the cell, produce energy in order for the cell to carry functions, is found in eukaryotes (bacteria does not have mitochondria)

21
Q

What are chloroplasts

A

Found in prokaryotes and eukaryotes (not in all plants Protists), make food through photosynthesis, this organelle contains green pigment known as chlorophyll, which captures radiant(light) energy in order to make sugar (glucose)

22
Q

What are vacuoles?

A

Storage bubble, storage food, water, waste, and debris in the cell, waste will be eliminated from the cell through exocytosis(outside)

23
Q

Cell wall

A

Protects and support the cell

24
Q

Cell membrane

A

Protects the cell, performs active transport and passive transport, moved materials in and out of cell, communication

25
Q

Cytoplasm

A

Pad and supports organelles inside the cell. Moves by cyclosis

26
Q

Nucleus

A

Controls all of the cells activity

27
Q

Nuclear membrane

A

Covers and protects the nucleus

28
Q

Nuclelous

A

Produce ribosomes

29
Q

Chromatin

A

Provides instructions for the cells activities (growth, reproduction)

30
Q

Endoplasmic reticulum

A

Transport materials like proteins around the cell

31
Q

Ribosomes

A

Makes proteins

32
Q

Mitochondria

A

Supplies energy or ATP for the cell through cell respiration using glucose and oxygen

33
Q

Vacuole

A

Storage tank for food, water, waste or enzymes

34
Q

Chloroplast

A

Captures sunlight and uses it to produce food through photosynthesis

35
Q

Golgi body

A

Packages and secrets proteins for use in and out of the cell

36
Q

Lysosomes

A

Digest older cell parts, food or other objects

37
Q

Centriole

A

Used with spindle apparatus during mitosis
