AP Organelles Flashcards

7610966219	Ribosome	Composed of Large and Small subunits; responsible for protein synthesis	0
7610966220	Mitochondria	Contains structures such as the cristae, inner membrane, out membrane, and matrix. Location of aerobic respiration.	1
7610966221	Golgi Apparatus	Receives vesicles and their contents from smooth ER , modifies them, repackages them into vesicles and distributes them to the plasma membrane by exocytosis	2
7610966222	Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum	System of internal membranes within the cytoplasm. Membranes are rough due to the presence of ribosomes. functions in transport of substances such as proteins within the cytoplasm	3
7610966224	lysosome	membranous organelle with hydrolytic enzymes that digests macromolecules such as complex lipids or proteins.	4
7610966226	Centriole	cylindrical organelle near the nucleus in animal cells, occurring in pairs and involved in the development of spindle fibers in cell division.	5
7610966227	Cytoskeleton	Network of protein filaments within some cells that helps the cell maintain its shape and is involved in many forms of cell movement.	6
7610966232	Smooth ER	membranous organelle responsible for lipid synthesis, storage of calcium and detoxification of poisons.	7
7610966233	Vacuole	organelle that can store various materials, helps plant cells maintain their shape.	8
7610966235	Cilia or Flagella	small short hairs or long whip like projections that aid in cell motility.	9
7610994856	Microvilli	small finger like extensions of the exposed plasm membrane of an epithelial cell	10
7611000308	peroxisomes	makes hydrogen peroxide to detoxify alcohol or convert lipids to be used for energy	11
7611003645	nucleus	Contains the DNA in a eukaryote cell.	12
7611006307	nucleolus	Non-membranus structure involved in production of ribosomes; located in the nucleus	13
7611011008	cytoplasm	Cytoplasm Area from Plasma Membrane to the Nucleus filled with cytolsol - the jelly-like material organelles are suspended in.	14
