5008367186 | Plasma Membrane | Double membrane, outer rim of cell, Lets only select things in and out of cell | 0 | |
5008367187 | Cell Wall | Only in plants-CELLULOSE, surrounds plasma membrane, protects and gives cells shape | 1 | |
5008367188 | Chromatin | Tangles of long strands of DNA, nucleus, packed into chromosomes when cell reproduces | 2 | |
5008367189 | Nucleolus | A semi-large region, nucleus, produces ribosomes that are involved in protein synthesis | 3 | |
5008367190 | Ribosomes | Tiny cell particles (not membrane bound), cytoplasm, synthesis proteins | 4 | |
5008367191 | Cytoplasm | Clear fluid, lies outside nucleus/ surrounds organelles, site of protein assembly | 5 | |
5008367192 | Endoplasmic reticulum | Folded membrane (one rough[ribomsomes] one smooth), cytoplasm, network of interconnected systems | 6 | |
5008367193 | Golgi Apparatus | Closely stacked, cytoplasm, delivers proteins to plasma membrane | 7 | |
5008367194 | Vacuole | Sac of fluid, cytoplasm, stores food-enzymes and other materials needed by cell | 8 | |
5008367195 | lysosomes | surrounded by membrane, cytoplasm, digests excess or worn out cell parts | 9 | |
5008367196 | mitochondria | highly folded inner membrane, cytoplasm, food molecules are broken down to create energy | 10 | |
5008367197 | chloroplasts | disc shaped, plant cells, transform light energy to CE | 11 | |
5008367198 | Chlorophyll | green pigment, thylakoid membrane, traps energy from sunlight | 12 | |
5008367199 | plastids | different color pigments, plant cells, storage | 13 | |
5008367200 | cytoskeleton | thin fibrous elements, throughout the cell, supports cell and organelles | 14 | |
5008367201 | microtubules | thin,hollow cylinders-cytoskeleton, provides protein to to cytoskeleton | 15 | |
5008367202 | cilia | hair like, plasma membrane, moves fluid over cell surface | 16 | |
5008367203 | flagella | "whip like" and long, one or two per cell | 17 | |
5008367204 | intermediate filaments | fibrous proteins that are (keratin) that are coiled into thicker cables and filaments | 18 | |
5008376326 | intercellular junctions | plants-plasmodesmata -channels between cells through adjacent cell walls -allows communication between cells -allows viruses to travel rapidly between cells | 19 | |
5008376327 | tight junctions | -very tight fusion of the membranes of adjacent cells -seals off areas between the cells -prevents movement of materials around cells | 20 | |
5008376328 | demosomes | -bundles of filaments which anchor junctions between cells -does not close off the area between adjacent cells -coordination of movement between groups | 21 | |
5008376329 | gap junctions | -opens channels between cells, similar to plasmodesmata -allows "communication" between cells | 22 | |
5009225283 | middle lamella | thin layer rich in pectin; glues plant cells together | 23 |

Need Notes?
While we strive to provide the most comprehensive notes for as many high school textbooks as possible, there are certainly going to be some that we miss. Drop us a note and let us know which textbooks you need. Be sure to include which edition of the textbook you are using! If we see enough demand, we'll do whatever we can to get those notes up on the site for you!
