The structural and functional unit of all living organisms, and is sometimes called the "building block of life."   show
🗑
Structures that have a specific jobs within a cell   show
🗑
show Cell membrane  
🗑
show Cell wall  
🗑
show Cytoplasm  
🗑
show Nucleus  
🗑
Protein factories for cells   show
🗑
Contains RNA and act as a messenger carrying instructions from DNA for controlling the synthesis of proteins.   show
🗑
Threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus carrying genetic information in the form of genes.   show
🗑
show Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum  
🗑
A network of flattened membrane sacs that helps complete the proteins after ribosome builds them and moves material around in cell.   show
🗑
show Golgi Bodies  
🗑
Stores and move materials between cell organelles, as well as to and from the cell surface.   show
🗑
show Vacoules  
🗑
show Lysosomes  
🗑
Contains oxidase enzymes for the breakdown of fatty acid molecules   show
🗑
show Mitochondria  
🗑
Use energy from sunlight to make own food (glucose)   show
🗑
show Cytoskeleton  
🗑
show Microtubules  
🗑
A type of cytoskeleton that are generally strong and rope like that gives the cell tensile strength and the ability to stretch without breaking apart.   show
🗑
show Microfilaments  
🗑
An area in the cell where microtubules are produced (MTOC) that help coordinate cell division.   show
🗑
show Centriole  
🗑
Found in the small intestine that aids in absorbing the nutrients.   show
🗑
Function in moving cells, in moving fluids, or in small particles across the cell surface ex. interior of the lungs   show
🗑
Found in sperm cells that aids for locomotion   show
🗑
show Extracellular Matrix  
🗑
Important in sharing of water, nutrients and chemical messages among plant cells.   show
🗑
Cells are joined together to form leakproof sheet example in bladder to prevent urine from leaking out.   show
🗑
Act like screws together with cytoskeletal fibers to form strong sheets.   show
🗑
show Gap junctions  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
