Cells

The cell organelles, find out the function, and what each one does. Find out what it looks like

AB
selectively permeableControls the ease of which a substance can pass
peripheral proteinsa protein attached to the exterior or interior of the cell membrane
intergral proteinsThe proteins that are embedded in the bylayer
nuclear matrixmaintains its shap with the help of a protein skeleton
nucleus most prominent structure within a eukaryotic cell and stored hereditary information and where RNA is copied
chromatina combination of DNA an protein inside the nuclear envelope (fine strands of DNA)
chromosomesDNA and protein in a coiled, rod-shaped form that occurs during cell division (short strands of DNA)
nuclear poressmall holes in the nuclear envelope
nucleolusThe site where ribosomes are synthesized and partially assembles before they pass through the nuclear pares the the cytosol
Golgi apparatusThe processin, packaging, and secreting organelles of the cell
lysosomes"suicide sacs" digests old cell organelles and other germs
cytoplasm the region of a cell between the cell membrane and the nucleus
cytosolgelatin-like aqueous fluid that organelles are bathed in
ERfunctions porimarily as a highway which moves molecules
cytoskeletona network of long protein strands located in teh cytosol that provide support
ribosomesmakes protein
mitochondria"powerhouse" releases energy
Cilia(hair) cause movement
flagella(tails) cause movement
cell wallshelps support and protect the plant, and contains long chains of cellulose; found only in a plant cell
vacuolesfluid-filled organells store enzymes adn metabolic wastes; helps keep plant standing (found only in a plant cell)
plastidsstore starch or fats, and others cantain pigments (found only in a plant cell)
chloroplasta plasid containing chlorophyl; and site for photosynthesis
