Ch. 7: Cell Structure and Function

AB
1. All living things are made up of one or more cells. 2. Cells are the basic unit of structure and function in organisms 3. All cells arise from existing cells.Cell Theory
Covers surface of the cell; acts as a barrier between the inside of a cell and a cell's environmentCell Membrane
Fluid filled region inside a cellCytoplasm
Site of protein synthesis in a cellRibosome
Network of protein filaments inside a cell that gives it shape and helps with movementCytoskeleton
Type of cell that does not have a nucleus; bacteria cellsProkaryotic
Rigid structure that surrounds the cell membrane; found in prokayotes and plant cellsCell Wall
Long hair-like structure on a cell which enables a cell to moveFlagella
Type of cell that has a nucleus; plant and animal cellsEukaryotic
Controls the activities in a cell; contains the DNANucleus
Small structures in a cell with a specific functionOrganelle
Hair-like structures on the surface of a cellCilia
A lipid that contains phosphorus; structural component of a cell membranePhospholipid
Cell membrane composed of two layers of phospholipidsLipid Bilayer
Protein in the cell membrane that aids in the movement of substances in and out of a cellTransport Protein
Protein in a cell membrane which binds to a specific signal molecule causing the cell to respondReceptor Protein
Protein on the cell membrane that identifies a cell typeCell Surface Marker Protein
Produces, processes, and transports proteins and lipids in cellsEndoplasmic Reticulum
Makes and packages materials to be transported out of a cellGolgi Apparatus
