| Term | Definition |
| Mitochondrion | Powerhouse of the cell, site of cellular respiration; energy from organic compounds used to make ATP |
| Smooth ER | Has no ribosomes attached and has smooth appearance aids in making lipids to be exported |
| Cell Wall | Thicker outer layer of a plant cell, which is before the cell membrane Strength,support, shape of cell |
| Cytoskeleton | Cellular skeleton that crisscrosses the cytoplasm support, shape, movement |
| Endocytosis | forms vacuole in cytoplasm |
| Rough ER | Studded with ribosomes prepares hormones and enzymes for transport to golgi |
| Chloroplast | Organelle where photosynthesis takes place in plants and algae where food is made |
| DNA | Polymer of nucleotides used by cells to store information |
| Nucleus | Manages the processes in the cell |
| Centrioles | Used for animal cells to reproduce aid in cell division |
| Cytoplasm | Organelle associated with providing the cell with a structure and means transport within the cell |
| Exocytosis | membrane of vacuole fuses w membrane, forces contents out of cell |
| Golgi Apparatus | Modifies, sorts, and packages different substances in a cell |
| Ribosomes | Small organelles that are involved in making proteins site of protein synthesis |
| Lysosome | Carry away waste from factory break down big molecules or worn out parts of the cell |
| Plasma Membrane | Forms a barrier between the cytoplasm |
| Nucleolus | To build ribosomes |
| Vacuole | Stores protein,salt,water,carbs, waste |
| Prokaryotes | Nucleoid circular DNA 1 chromosome |
| Prokaryote | Microscopic single celled organism |
| Active tranport | requires energy |
| Passive thransport | requires no energy |
| Eukaryotes | Nucleus Organelles Linear DNA |
| Eukaryotes | Any organism whose cells contain a nucleus and other organelles |
| Prokaryotes + Eukaryotes Similarities and Differences | Both in vesicles Both contain ribosomes Both have cell membrane |
| Diffusion | the process by which molecules move from one area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration |
| Osmosis | the diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane |
