A | B |
cytoskeleton | long protein strands - 0 membranes; support for the cell |
cell and organelle movement | made up of microfilaments and microtubules |
microfilaments | threads made of two protein called actin |
movement | created by adding or taking away actin molecules |
microtubules | hollow tubes of protein; extend out of central part of cell and attach to membrane |
central support for cell | during cell division, they become spindle fibers and move chromazones to opposite cells |
centriole | treasure chest on cell drawing - 0 membranes |
microtubules | when division is done, fibers are disassembled and return to microtubules providing support |
cilia and flagella | microtubules wrapped in membranes |
cilia | line cells and help cells move or trap particles (respiratory cells) |
flagella | help cells move (sperm have whiplike motion) |
nucleus | has protein skeleton that helps retain its shape, called nuclear matrix |
nuclear envelope | has small holes called nuclear pores; allow for entrance and exit of molecules |
chromatin | fine strands inside the nuclear matrix (DNA and protein) |
when cell about to divide | chromatin coils up and becomes chromosomes |
nucleolus | sperical where ribosomes are made in the nucleus |
