| 9490353 | Mitochondria | the organelles in which nutrients are converted to energy | |
| 9490354 | Cytoskeleton | a microscopic network of actin filaments and microtubules in the cytoplasm of many living cells that gives the cell shape and coherence | |
| 9490355 | Chloroplast | uses energy from sunlight to make energy-rich food | |
| 9490356 | Nucleus | a part of the cell containing DNA and RNA and responsible for growth and reproduction | |
| 9490357 | Lysosomes | intracellular digestion | |
| 9490358 | Golgi Apparatus | a net-like structure in the cytoplasm of animal cells (especially in those cells that produce secretions) | |
| 9490554 | ECM | functions in support, adhesion, movement, and regulation in animal cells | |
| 9490555 | Nucleolus | a small round body of protein in a cell nucleus | |
| 9490556 | Smooth ER | ER that has no ribosomes | |
| 9490557 | Rough ER | ER that is dotted with ribosomes | |
| 9490558 | Collagen | most abundant fibers in the connective tissue | |
| 9490559 | Middle lamella | the thin film between the cell walls of adjacent plant cells | |
| 9490560 | Microscopy | research with the use of microscopes | |
| 9667893 | Gap junction | two cells are held together by interlocking junctional proteins called connexons. They are common among epithelial cells, where the movement of ions helps coordinate function such as the beating of cilia. They are essential the the coordination of muscle cell contractions in cardiac and smooth muscle tissue | |
| 9742868 | Exocytosis | the cell secretes macromolecules by the fusion of vesicles with the plasma membrane | |
| 9742869 | Endocytosis | the cell takes in macromolecules and particulate matter by forming new vesicles from the plasma membrane | |
| 9742870 | integral protein | proteins embedded in the bilayer | |
| 9742871 | Isotonic | of or involving muscular contraction in which tension is constant while length changes | |
| 9742872 | hypertonic | (of a solution) having a higher osmotic pressure than a comparison solution |
