1

Contains digestive enzymes to break down large molecules worn out cell parts food particles and engulfed viruses/bacteria.

Lysosome

New cards
2

The rigid surrounding that gives certain cells shape and support.

Cell wall

New cards
3

Carry out the chemical reactions that release energy stored in glucose to form molecules such as ATP, which provides energy to drive a variety of cellular reactions.

Mitochondria

New cards
4

Flexible boundary covering all cells made a violation of a phospholipid which regulates what enters and exit the cell in order to maintain homeostasis

Cell membrane

New cards
5

The control center is for also activities that contain hereditary instructions and other molecules that function on how the instructions are read, modified and dispersed

Nucleus

New cards
6

A plastid that traps and light energy is converted into chemical energy the other process of photosynthesis

Chloroplast

New cards
7

Small organelle which is the side where protein synthesis takes place. Found on the surface of the rough ER and within the cytoplasm of the cell

Ribosomes

New cards
8

An interconnecting system transports materials through the cytoplasm where they are synthesized and/or with in the cell's cytoplasm.

Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)

New cards
9

Serve as storage areas for food, water or wastes. In plant cells, they become very large in increase the cell size and surface area.

Vacuoles

New cards
10

Serves as packaging and shipping factory where forms membranes around different types of proteins for export to the proper destination (vessels assist this organelle).

Golgi Appartus

New cards
11

The interior framework of protein fibers with anchor cells organelles gives certain shows their shape these fibers are adjustable and can serve as a “highway system” through which materials move within the cell.

Cytoskeleton

New cards
12

Carries out the production assembly of ribosomes and is found in the nucleus.

Nucleolus

New cards
13

Two structures composed of microtubules two found in the center of animal cells and is the location of spindle formation during cell division.

Centrioles

New cards
14

Made of microtubules and assists in cell movement or feeding.

Cilia and flagella

New cards
15

allows only some substances and molecules to pass into or leave the cell.

Selectively Permeable

New cards
16

Fluid inside the cell
