what is the nucleolus

Dense region in the nucleus Involved in the synthesis of ribosomes

What is a prokaryotic cell?

Do not have structures surrounded by membranes Few internal structures One celled organism (bacteria) cell with out a nucleus

what does Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) do

Form passages throughout the cell for intracellular (within the cell) transport Connects the nuclear membrane to the plasma membrane

what does the Contractile Vacuole do

Helps to maintain water balance within a cell

what did Anton von Leeuwenhoek do

what are Cell Organelles

In cells these are specialized structures that carry out each of the life functions. Organelles are small specializes structurers that carry out life functions within cells

Mitochondria

What is cyclosis?

Movement of the cytoplasm (transports materials within the cell)

What does the cell wall do?

Non living structure that surrounds supports and protects the cell made of cellulose a (polysaccharide) FOUND ONLY IN THE PLANT CELL

What does the chloroplast do?

Perform photosynthesis (produce nutrients) FOUND ONLY IN PLANT CELLS

What do centrioles do?

Play a role in cell division FOUND ONLY IN ANIMAL CELLS RAHHH

What is the cell membrane?

Regulates the movement of materials into or out of cells Semi permeable Selectively permeable Composed of a lipid bilayer with embedded proteins It is fluid- meaning it is flexible and the parts can move around within the membrane

Ribosomes

What is the mitchondria?

Site of cellular respiration Produces ATP (energy) for metabolism The power house of the cell

What do ribosomes do?

Site of protein synthesis (ex: enzymes are proteins)

What are vacuoles

Space in a cell surrounded by a membrane

what is the Golgi Complex (Golgi apparatus)

Synthesizes, packages, and secretes (releases) cellular products
