A | B |
Vesicle | Sac involved in transporting substances in the cell. |
Lysosome | Digest and recycle large food particles and organelles. |
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum | System of channels formed by folded membrane; highway system; lipids made here. |
Golgi bodies | Packages proteins for export to other cells; attach carbohydrate and proteins to proteins |
Nuclear envelope | Membrane that surrounds the nucleus. |
Cytoplasm | Fluid in cell that surrounds organelles. |
Vacuole | Sac that stores food or water; large one of these found in plants--maintains structure |
Plasma membrane | Protects cell; Controls movement of substances in and out of the cell; it's selectively permeable |
Mitochondria | Release energy from sugar during cellular respiration. |
Centrioles | Pair of structures that assist the cell in cell division. |
Nucleus | Directs cellular activities; contains chromosomes. |
Nucleolus | Assembles ribosomes |
Chromosomes | Contain genetic information ;made of DNA; found in nucleus. |
Ribosomes | Site of protein-making (synthesis); located on Rough E.R. or floating in cytoplasm. |
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum | System of channels formed by folded membrane; highway system; "dotted with ribosomes". |
Cell wall | Supports and protects cell; found only in plant cells |
Cilia | Aid in movement; short |
Flagella | Aid in movement; long |
chloroplasts | Use the sun's energy to make sugars during photosynthesis; found only in plants |
prokaryotic | Type of cell found in bacteria with no true nucleus or other membrane-bound structures. |
eukaryotic | Type of cell that contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound structures. |
