Unit 2: Cell Organelles
Terms : Hide Images [1]
A hollow rod of tubulin protein in the cytoplasm of all eukaryotic cells and in cilia, flagella, and the cytoskeleton. | ||
fine, threadlike proteins found in the cell's cytoskeleton | ||
The organelle where ribosomes are made, synthesized and partially assembled, located in the nucleus | ||
microscope that uses a beam of light passing through one or more lenses to magnify an object | ||
microscope that forms an image by focusing beams of electrons onto a specimen | ||
a microscope that produces an enlarged, three-dimensional image of an object by using a beam of electrons rather than light | ||
An electron microscope used to study the internal structure of thin sections of cells | ||
technique in which cells are broken into pieces and the different cell parts are separated | ||
A dense region of DNA in a prokaryotic cell. | ||
a thin membrane around the cytoplasm of a cell | ||
a lash-like appendage used for locomotion (e.g., in sperm cells and some bacteria and protozoa) | ||
small region of cytoplasm adjacent to the nucleus | ||
A component of the cytoskeleton that includes all filaments intermediate in size between microtubules and microfilaments. | ||
projections that increase the cell's surface area | ||
A microbody containing enzymes that transfer hydrogen from various substrates to oxygen, producing and then degrading hydrogen peroxide. | ||
membrane-bound sac containing digestive enzymes that can break down proteins, nucleic acids, and polysaccharides | ||
stack of membranes in the cell that modifies, sorts, and packages proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum | ||
A network of interconnected membranous sacs in a eukaryotic cell's cytoplasm; covered with ribosomes that make membrane proteins and secretory proteins. | ||
synthesis of lipids, phospholipids and steroid sex hormones-help detoxify drugs and poisons (liver cells) involves adding hydroxyl groups to drugs to make soluble and easier to flush from body. free of ribosomes | ||
Open channels in the cell wall of a plant through which strands of cytosol connect from an adjacent cell. | ||
layer of two membranes that surrounds the nucleus of a cell | ||
A netlike array of protein filaments that maintains the shape of the nucleus. | ||
an organelle in the cytoplasm of a living cell | ||
