  • what can nucleus be referred as?
    control centre of the cell
  • function of cell membrane
    controls movement of substances in and out of cell
  • function of mitochondria
    releases energy from glucose, site of aerobic respiration
  • function of ribosomes
    synthesize proteins in a cell
  • function of cytoplasm
    where chemical reactions take place
  • function of cell wall
    strengthens cell
  • what is a cell wall made out of
    cellulose
  • function of chloroplasts
    absort light for photosynthesis to make glucose
  • what does a Nucleus include
    pores, nucleolus, nucleur membrane
  • what is the function of the nucleus
    stores the cells DNA and protects the genetic information of the cell.
  • function of nucleolus in nucleus
    Site of ribosome production
  • function of ribosomes
    assemble the building blocks to make proteins
  • function of RER
    ribosomes being attached allows RER to synthesise and modify proteins
  • Function of SER
    Synthesizes lipids in a cell
  • Function of golgi apparatis
    Site of protein sorting, packaging, modification for use in the cell or export
  • function of lysosome
    breaks down cell waste and toxins
  • structure of lysosome
    A membrane bound vesicle, digestive enzymes
  • definition an organelle
    a cellular structure that peforms a specific role to keep the cell functioning
  • what are ribosomes made out of
    ribosonomal RNA and proteins
  • define a cytoskeleton
    a large network of protein filaments
  • define the structure of the rough endoplasmic reticulum
    a membranous chain of flattened sacs which are coated with ribosomes.
  • membrane bound organelles definition
    structures within a cell that are enclosed by a phospholid bilayer
  • what does a flagellum do
    enables the cell to move
  • golgi apparatus structure
    stack of flattened sacs
  • function of golgi apparatus
    site of protein sorting, packaging, modification for use in the cell or export
  • structure of chloroplast
    double membrane bound organelle
  • structure of a vacuole
    a membrane bound sac
  • function of vacuole
    used for water and solute storage, mantains plant cell structure
  • structure of cell wall
    A sturdy border, made of cellulose
  • function of cytoskeleton
    mantaining cell shape, transporting vesicles
  • why does mitochondria have a circular loop and is not a prokaryote
    endosymbiotic theory
  • explain the difference between the cytoplasm and cytosol
    The cytosol is the liquid component of the cell, the cytoplasm includes the cytosol most organelles in the cell
  • how do you know if a cell is a living thing just by knowing it has a mitochondria
    it can respire as it contains mitochondria
  • chloroplast photsynthesis chemical reaction
    carbion dioxide + water ( sunlight, chlorophyll ) -> glucose + oxygen
