prokaryotea cell that doesn't have a nucleus such as bacteria
eukaryotea cell that has a nucleus such as plant, animal, fungi and protist cells
cytoplasmthe jelly like colloid found in the cell
ribosomeprotein factories of the cell
organellessmall parts that make up a cell
mitochondrionpowerhouse of the cell, provides the cell with ATP, energy
chloroplastorganelle that carries out photosynthesis
endoplasmic reticulumtransportation network in the cell,
Golgi apparatusPackages wastes and proteins, (trashman)
cell wallouter support structure of plant cells
cellulosecomponent of plant cell walls
RibososmesMake Proteins
Rough Endoplasmic ReticulumEndoplasmic Reticulem that has ribosomes attached
selectively permeableallows only certain things in and out (cell membrane)
organellesparts of cell that does a job
cristeafolds inside of mitochondria, increases seurface area for ATP production
Lysosomeeats and digests particles inside the cell
vacuolestores water and nutrients in plant cell
ciliahair like structures on outside of cell, useful in movement
flagellawhip like structure on outside of cell, useful for movement
Integral Proteinlets big things in and out of the cell
Peripheral ProteinProteins attached to the outside of the cell membrane
