Cell Structure and Function

AB
VesicleSac involved in transporting substances in the cell.
LysosomeSac that contains digestive enzymes that break down food or wastes.
Smooth Endoplasmic ReticulumSystem of channels formed by folded membrane; highway system; lipids made here.
Golgi bodiesPackages proteins for export to other cells.
Nuclear envelopeMembrane that surrounds the nucleus.
CytoplasmFluid in cell that surrounds organelles.
VacuoleSac that stores food or water.
Plasma membraneControls movement of substances in and out of the cell; it's selectively permeable
MitochondrionProvides the cell with energy by breaking down glucose during cellular respiration.
CentriolesPair of structures that assist the cell in cell division.
NucleusDirects cellular activities; contains chromosomes.
NucleolusRibosomes made here.
ChromosomesContains genetic information; made of DNA; found in nucleus.
RibosomesSite of protein-making; located on Rough E.R. or floating in cytoplasm.
Rough Endoplasmic ReticulumSystem of channels formed by folded membrane; highway system; "dotted with ribosomes".
MicrotubulesProtein rods extending across the cell; give internal support.
