Terms : Hide Images
1694374556An organelle is only found in aEukaryotic Cell0
1694374557Cytoplasm isjelly-like substance within a cell membrane1
1694374558Cell Membrane is a: What is its function?Boundary between cell & external environment. It decides what goes in and out of the cell2
1694374559What does the nuclear envelope do?Protects the Nucleus.3
1694374560Nucleolus does what?Make Ribisomes4
1694374561Nuclear Pores are aPassage of Molecules5
1694374562Chromosomes (Chromatin) are made of-DNA, RNA, and Proteins6
1694374563A Cytoskeleton has 2 parts. What are they?Microfilaments and Microtubules7
1694374564What is a Microfilament and what does it do?It's protein threads/strands. It aids in movement of organelles and in cell movement and muscle contraction8
1694374565What do Microtubules do?Aid in Chromosome movement during mitosis9
1694374566What is the Golgi Apparatus and what does it do?Its a series of membrane enclosed spaces (flatt-end sacs) It processes & packages proteins for export from the cell.10
1694374567Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) is aninterconnected network of membranes that produce proteins and lipids11
1694374568What are the 2 types of ER'sRough and Smooth ER12
1694374569A rough ER has ____ attached and is the _________. A Smooth ER has ____ ________________.Has 'ribisomes' attached and is the 'highway through a cell'.. Has no 'ribisomes' attached.13
1694374570A ribisome is a __________ and is ___________Mixture of PROTEIN AND RNA and is the site of PROTEIN SYNTHESIS.14
1694374571Ribisomes are found on/in which two places?Free floating in cytoplasm or attached to a rough ER.15
1694374572What is a mitochondria and its function(s)?Enclosed double membrane (Inner and outer layer). . Power of the cell/making majority of cells energy(ATP).16
1694374573A mitochondria has ____ and ___.Folds called cristae and its own DNA17
1694374574What is a vacuole? Whats the difference between a plant vacuole and an animal vacuole?Filled with fluid (mostly water) used to store enzymes and metabolic waste. Plant cells- many small vacuoles Animal- one single large vacuole18
1694374575What is Cilia and where is it foundprojections that are SHORT and NUMEROUS (hair like). It is found on many unicellular organisms and cells living in respiratory tracts. Only Animal Cells19
1694374576What is a Flagellum (Singular) / Flagella (Plural)? Where are they found.Projections that are long and few (whip-like) Found only in animal cells20
1694374577Centrioles do what? What are they composed of? Where are they found?Help the cell divide. Form Cilia and Flagella. Composed of microtubules. Found only in animal cells.21
1694374578What two organelles are found in PLANT CELLS ONLY?Cell wall and Chloroplast22
1694374579What is a cell walls structure (Description) and Function.Surrounds cell membrane in plant cells and fungi. Provides structure and support23
1694374580What does a chloroplast do and containContains pigments in discs that absorb visible light (Chlorophyll) Have an outer and inner layer It absorbs light energy during photosynthesis24
1694374581Which organelle can take up to 90% of a cell?vacuole25
1694374582where does a cell membrane come into contact with water?osmosis26
