Cell Structure and Function

Review the key concepts and terms used in this unit of study.

AB
centrioleorganelle found only in animal cells that has a function in cell division
ciliahairlike organelles that allow some cells to move
flagellalong whip-like tail that allows some cells to move
vacuolesfluid filled membranes used to store material
chloroplastcarries out process of photosynthesis
cellulosematerial that makes up the cell wall
nuclear envelopemembrane that separates the nucleus from the rest of the cell
nucleolusdense body inside nucleus that is made of DNA, RNA, and proteins that makes ribosomes
chromatinlong thin threads of DNA found in the nucleus
chromosomesshort thick thread of DNA found in the nucleus when cell is dividing
endoplasmic reticulumcontinuous network of channels that transport materials through the cell
rough endoplasmic reticulumendoplasmic reticulum covered ribosomes
smooth endoplasmic reticulumendoplasmic reticulum that has no ribosomes
ribosomesites of protein synthesis in the cell.
golgi bodiesflattened sacs that process, package, and store products to be released from the cell
lysosomespackages of strong digestive (hydrolytic) enzymes
mitochondriaorganelle that carries out cellular respiration
microtubuleshollow tubes that form the cytoskeleton
microfilamentssolid thread-like structures that act like muscles for cell
chlorophyllgreen pigment involved in photosynthesis
