Cell Organelles

Organelles, Cytoplasm, & the nucleus

QuestionAnswer
Fragile outer boundry of cellSeperates intracellular fluid & extracellular fluid-Selectively permeable Barrier Plasma Membrane
Intracellular fluid that contains OrganellesCytosolInclusions Cytoplasm
* Provide most of ATP energy* Contains own DNA & RNA Mitochondria
* Protein Synthesis* Free and Membrane Bound Ribosomes
* Fluid Filled tubular channels* Manufactures all secreted proteins* External surface studded with ribosomes* Synthesis of integral membrane proteins & phospholipids for cell membranes Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
* Continuous with nuclear membrane* no ribosomes* less prominent* Lipid & cholesterol synthesis & metabolism* Detoxification of drugs Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
* Shipping Department or Traffic Director for cellular proteins* Functions in modification, concentration & packaging proteins* Secretory - gathers & moves out of cell Golgi Apparatus
" Garbage truck of cell"* Contains digestive enzymes for breakdown of - Glycogen & releases thyroid hormone Lyosomes
* Contains enzymes * Neutralizes dangerous free radicals * Detoxify harmful or toxic substances* Oxidases & Catalases Peroxisomes
* Cell Skeleton* Contain microfilaments & microtubules Cytoskeleton
* Organize the mitotic spindle during mitosis* Form bases of cilia & flagella* In centrisome at right angles to each other Centrioles
* Whiplike, cellular extensions on exposed membranes of certain cells* Propels substances accross cell surface* In lungs Cilia
* Longer projections that propel the cell* Sperm the only example Flagella
* "Control Center"* Transmits genetic info (DNA)* Transmits protein systhesis instruction* All but mature red blood cells have Nucleus
* Double and selectively permeable * Seperates neucleoplasm from cytoplasm Nuclear Envelope
* Site of ribosome production* Contains protein * no membranes in above bodies Nucleoli
* Structures in the nucleus that carry the hereditary factors (genes)* Contain nucleosomes - genes Chromatin

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
