Cell Organelles
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Chloroplasts | Contains chlorophyll, site of photosynthesis, Plant/algae cells only |
Plasma (Cell) Membrane | Semipermeable boundry of cell, regulates transports in/out of cell |
Cytoplasm | Fluid inside cell, circulates substances for metabolism (o2, sugar,ect) |
Mitochondria | Site of aerobic respiration, release calories from food to make ATP (cell energy) |
Nucleus | Eukaryotes only, Contains DNA (hereditary material) |
Vacuole | Membrane bubbles, contains food, water, or wastes |
Ribosomes | Site of protein synthesis |
Centrioles | Help separate chromosomes during animal cell division (Mitosis) |
Golgi Apparatus (Body) | Transport organelle, packages and modifies cell products for export |
Cell Wall | Surrounds and supports plant cells (made of cellulose) |
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) | Transport organelle, network of tunnels for intracellular transport |
Lysosomes | Vacuoles that contain digestive enzymes to break down food and old organelles |
