Cells- The smallest unit of life
Golgi Apparatus
"mail room" of the cell, sorts, packages, and exports proteins
What does the nucleus contain?
DNA that can act like "instructions"
what does photosynthesis equal?
ENERGY
Where do good proteins go?
Golgi Apparatus
Where do bad proteins go?
Lysosome
Why is it called "rough"?
attached ribosomes make it look bumpy
What do organelles do?
carry out specialized jobs
Eukaryota
cells with a nucleus EX- plants, animals, fungus, protist
Prokaryotic
cells without a nucleus -bacteria only
Rough and Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
checks proteins to make sure they are made correctly
Animal Cells
contain- cell membrane, NO chloroplasts, small vacuole, many shapes
Plant Cells
contain- cell wall, chloroplasts, large vacuole, are square
What is the nucleus?
control center of the cell
what does the mitochondria make?
energy ATP
What are the 2 layers of phospholipids?
hydrophilic phosphate heads, hydrophobic lipid tails
Where is chlorophyll found?
in chloroplasts
what is an organelle?
like tiny organs in a cell
where are most organelles found?
mostly in plant cells
Lysosomes
organelle, destroy bad proteins and damaged organelles
multicellular
organism made of many cells EX- humans, plants
Cell membrane
outer boundary of an animal cell and the second layer of protection for a plant cell
Where are vacuoles huge in water storage?
plant cells
Mitochondria
power house of the cell
Chlorophyll
primary green pigment
what do Ribosomes make?
proteins
Unicellular
single celled organism EX- amoeba, paramecium
Vacuole
storage organelle for food, water, and waste
Whats a cell?
the simplest unit of structure and function for every living thing
Ribosomes
tiniest organelles, some float in cytoplasm, can be attached to other organelles
What does the Golgi export proteins in?
vesicles
Cell Theory
1. all living things are made of cells 2. cells are the basic unit of structure and function of living things 3. all cells come from pre-existing cells
