16
Q

Cell wall

A

Holds cell together
Rigid structure

17
Q

Golgi body

A

Receives vesicles and proteins from ER
Modifies and packages proteins

18
Q

Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER)

A

Creates lipids, membranes, and vesicles

19
Q

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER)

A

Creates proteins for export
Coated in ribosomes

20
Q

Vesicles

A

Transport things throughout the cell

21
Q

Cytoskeleton

A

Gives structure to the cell
Made of microtubules, intermediate filaments, and microfilaments

22
Q

Centrioles

A

Help cell divide

23
Q

Cilia

A

Hair-like coating that help cells move

24
Q

Flagella

A

Whip-like tail used for movement

25
Nucleolus
Where ribosomes are made Inside nucleus
26
What cell parts are unique to animal cells?
Centriole
27
What cell parts are unique to plant cells?
Cell wall Large central vacuole Chloroplast
28
Prokaryote examples
Bacteria (Eubacteria & Archaea)
29
Eukaryote examples
Protists, Plants, Fungi, Animals
30
What cell structures do prokaryotes have?
Cell wall, ribosomes, nucleoid, circular DNA, cilia & flagella
31
What cell structures do eukaryotes have?
All of them, nucleus, linear DNA
32
What is endosymbiosis?
Mitochondria and chloroplast were once free-living prokaryotes that now live in eukaryotic cells. "living inside"
33
Evidence for endosymbiosis
Mitochondria and chloroplasts have circular DNA like prokaryotes. Mitochondria and chloroplasts have double membranes. Mitochondria and chloroplasts divide like prokaryotes.
