Parts of the Cell

• they perform the basic functions such as homeostasis, metabolism, cellular growth, and repair

  cell
• this is a dark small circle in a microscope that controls all the chemical activities of the cell

  nucleus
• this contains all the nucleic materials: DNA and RNA that are the principal molecules responsible for these actions 


  nucleus
• this refers to the dense network of protein fibers that supports the shape of the cell and anchors organelles such as the nucleus to fixed locations

  cytoskeletons
• this is the jelly-like, clear substance that fills the entire cell's volume. it contains proteins, amino acids, and glucose


  cytoplasm
• cells are composed of about 90% cytoplasm, which is mostly composed of water
• this is where most intracellular chemical reactions take place

  cytoplasm
• this is where organelles are suspended

  cytoplasm
• this refers to the series of channel found throughout the cytoplasm of cell

  endoplasmic reticulum
• the surface of these channels provide space for important chemical reactions

  endoplasmic reticulum
• these help move chemicals to their proper destinations

  endoplasmic reticulum
• this is when the endoplasmic reticulum is covered in ribosomes


  rough endoplasmic reticulum
• this is when the endoplasmic reticulum isnt covered in ribosomes


  smooth endoplasmic reticulum
• these are the smallest organelles

  ribosomes
• these are found either embedded in the endoplasmic reticulum or floating freely in the cytoplasm


  ribosome
• they function in the synthesis of proteins


  ribosomes
• they are used to create the parts of the cell

  proteins
• they are oval shaped structures that contain enzymes that aid the cell in drawing energy from glucose

  mitochondria
• energy --> released from glucose --> stored in atp
• they are bag-like structures located in the cytoplasm of cells that stores water and other materials for use by the cell

  vacuoles
• this type of cell has a larger vacuoles

  plant cells
• this type of cell has a smaller vacuole

  animal cells
• they are small, sac-like structures that contain digestive enzymesthat are used to dissolve large food molecules and to break up old or damaged cell structures

  lysosomes
• they are responsible for digestive character of certain white blood cells and destruction of tissue in animals (i.e. tails of tadpoles)

  lysosomes
• they are a group of organelles that prepare certain protein compounds for dispersal from the cell

  golgi bodies
• these protein chemicals are enclosed in small membranes for this journey

  golgi bodies
• they act as a support structures for cell

  microtubules
• they sometimes extend beyond the outer cell membrane to the outside of cell

  microtubules
• identify the following parts of the animal cell

  A) centrosome

  B) centriole

  C) lysosome

  D) ribosomes

  E) cell membrane

  F) nucleus

  G) golgi aparatus

  H) cytoplasm

  I) rough endoplasmic reticulum

  J) smooth endoplasmic reticulum

  
• they are assembled from tubulin subunits in the cells of the animals and most protists by organelles called what

  centrioles
• they contain circular dna molecule involved in the production of many structural proteins

  centrioles
• this is where the centrioles of the animal cells are found and is important for dna division


  centrosome
• organelles are commonly found in all plant cells. it is not onlhy surrounded by cell membrane but also protected by a more solid structure framing the cell membrane-- the cell wall
• they are composed mostly of the complex carbohydrate cellulose. they are also the supportive structure for plant cells

  cell wall
• they contain the pigment called chlorophyll


  chloroplasts
• they are the site of the chemical process of photosynthesis within plants
