Cards (7)

  • Centrioles
    Structures found in the cytoplasm made of microtubules that produce the spindle fibres during mitosis.
  • Bacteria replicate by binary fission.
  • Eukaryotic cells contain 80S ribosomes.
  • Prokaryotic cells contain 70S ribosomes.
  • Cell-surface membrane
    Controls passage of entry of substances into the cell and site of cell communication via receptors
  • Large, permanent vacuole
    Maintains cell structure (turgidity) and acts as a temporary energy store
  • Cell wall
    Provides support and mechanical strength
