Chapter 3

AB
Small circular structure within the nucleus; may be involved in protein synthesisnucleolus
Where photosynthesis occurschloroplast
Where proteins are maderibosomes
Transport system in cellendoplasmic reticulum
Stores wastes, water, foodvacuole
Protects and supports plant cellscell wall
Special type of vacuole that breaks down large molecules and cell partslysosome
Genetic material found in nucleuschromosomes
Where energy is producedmitochondria
The control center of the cellnucleus
Packages up proteins that are made in the cellGolgi apparatus
Semi-permeable; it controls what moves in and out of the cellcell membrane
Plant cell walls are made of thiscellulose
The jellylike substance found in the cellcytoplasm
Organelle involved in cell division in animal cellscentrosome (centrioles)
The smallest and basic unit of lifecell
Tiny cell structuresorganelles
Controls what goes in and out of the nucleusnuclear membrane
Granules that form into chromosomes during cell divisionchromatin
Green pigment that traps light and is used to produce food for plantschlorophyll
"Powerhouse" of the cellmitrochondria
The heavily granulated "inner" cytoplasmendoplasm
The protoplasm found outside of the nucleuscytoplasm
Involved in the digestion of food within the celllysosomes
Holds nucleus togethernuclear membrane
Gives the cell its shape and provides protection; not found in animal cellscell wall
Material between nucleus and cell membranecytoplasm
Units of hereditygenes
Food for plant cells is made herechloroplasts
