Cells Review

Review your understanding of the concepts and terms related to the structure and function of eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.

AB
centriolesAnimal cell organelle used in cell division and to organize microtubules
vacuolesFluid filled membranes used to store materials
chloroplastGreen plastid that carries out process of photosynthesis
diffusionMolecule movement from high concentration to low concentration
facilitated diffusionMore rapid movement of molecules from a high concentration to low concentration with the help of the membrane
osmosisDiffusion of water
isotonic solutionSolution with the same amount of dissolved substances as a cell
hypotonic solutionSolution with the less dissolved substances than a cell
hypertonic solutionSolution with the more dissolved substances than a cell
passive transportMovement of materials across a cell membrane without using no energy
active transportMovement of materials across a cell membrane using energy
endocytosisProcess of moving material into a cell using a vesicle
exocytosisProcess of moving material out of a cell using a vesicle
prokaryotic cellsPrimitive cell that have no membrane around the nucleus
eukaryotic cellsAdvanced cells that have a membrane around the nucleus
organelleStructure inside of a cell that has a specific function
cell wallOrganelle used by plant, fungi, and bacteria cells for extra support
cell membraneSeparates cell from surroundings and controls what enters and leaves the cell
cytoplasmWatery material between the cell membrane and nuclear membrane
nucleusControl center for cell information
nuclear envelopeMembrane that separates the nucleus from the rest of the cell
nucleolusDense body inside nucleus that makes ribosomes
endoplasmic reticulumContinuous network of channels that transport materials through the cell
rough endoplasmic reticulumEndoplasmic reticulum covered ribosomes
smooth endoplasmic reticulumEndoplasmic reticulum that has no ribosomes
ribosomeSites of protein synthesis in the cell
golgi bodiesFlattened sacs that process, package, and store products
lysosomesSingle membrane packages of strong digestive (hydrolytic) enzymes
mitochondriaOrganelle that makes energy from sugar
microtubulesHollow tubes that are part of the cytoskeleton
microfilamentSolid tubes that are part of the cytoskeleton
