Cytologystudy of cells
Cellsfundamental units of all plant and animal tissues
Cell membraneisolation, protection, sensitivity, support
Cytosolfluid component of cytoplasm
Cytoskeletonstrength, support, movement of cellular structures and materials
Microvilliincreases surface area for absorption of extracellular materials
Centrosomemovement of chromosomes during cell division
Ciliamovement of materials over surface
Ribosomesprotein "factories"
Endoplasomic Reticulumprovides intracellular storage and transport
Rough ERribosomes attached to membranes (sythesizes secretory proteins)
Smooth ERlacks attached ribosomes (sythesizes lipids and carbohydrates)
Golgi apparatusstores, alters, and packages secretory producst, forms lysomomes
Lysosomesremoves damaged organelles or pathogens within cells
Mitochondriaproduces 95% of the ATP required by the cell
Nucleuscontrol, storage and processing of genetic info. "Control Center"
Nucleolusdense region in nucleoplasm containing DNA and RNA
Nuclear Envelopesurrounds the nucleolus
Chromatingives nucleus a clumped, grainy appearance
Peroxisomesabsorbs and break down fatty acids and other compounds
