| Question | Answer |
| pinocytotic vesicle | vessel that stores liquid produced by the process of the act of grabbing some liquid |
| lysosome | single membrane organelles that stores enzymes created by the cell for the purpose of digesting things |
| golgi vesicles | vessel that stores complex molecules that are stored for later use or sent out of the cell |
| endoplasmic reticulum (ER) | functions as a packaging system 2 types; rough ER and smooth ER |
| rough ER | important in the synthesis and packaging of proteins ribosomes are attached to the membrane |
| smooth ER | stores ions and steroids lacks ribosomes |
| cell membrane | flexible outer layer that separates a cell from its environment controls what enters and leaves the cell |
| mitochondrion | the powerhouse of the cell breaks down nutrients and converts it to energy (cellular respiration) |
| golgi apparatus | the "post office" of the cell converts basic molecules to complex molecules packages complex molecules in vesicles for later use or sent out of the cell |
| nucleolus | inside the nucleus makes RNA |
| nucleus | the brain or control house of the cell controls the functions, movement, energy consumption, and reproduction of the cell |
| centrioles | aid in cell division (animal cells only) |
| microtubules | thick tubes made of proteins 9 make up 1 centrioles |
| cytoplasm | the fluid that fills a cell made up of enzymes, fatty acids, sugars and amino acids |
| ribosomes | makes the proteins in the cell |
| large central vacuole | storage compartment that holds waste, protein, salt, minerals, nutrients, and pigments (plant cells only) |
| cell wall | made of cellulose, rigid outer layer that surrounds the cell membrane that protects and shapes the cell (plant cells only) |
| chloroplast | produces food for the cell through the process of photosynthesis contains chlorophyll (plant cells only) |
| vacuole membrane | made of cell sap regulates intake and output of the vacuole (plant cell only) |
