|
|
Term
|
Definition
| is a specialized subunit within a cell that has a specific function, and is usually separately enclosed within its own lipid bilayer. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| is the liquid found inside cells. In eukaryotes this liquid is separated by cell membranes from the contents of the organelles suspended in the cytosol, such as the mitochondrial matrix inside the mitochondrion. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| is one biological membrane separating the interior of a cell from the outside environment. The cell membrane surrounds all cells and it is semi-permeable, controlling the movement of substances in and out of cells. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| is the part of a cell that is enclosed within the cell membrane. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| is a double lipid bilayer that encloses the genetic material in eukaryotic cells. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| are the components of cells that make proteins from amino acids. |
|
|
Term
| Rough Endoplasmic Veticulum |
|
Definition
| is an eukaryotic organelle that forms an interconnected network of tubules, vesicles, and cisternae within cells. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| is a non-membrane bound structure[1] composed of proteins and nucleic acids found within the nucleus. Makes RNA |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| can move molecules between locations inside the cell, e.g., proteins from the rough endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| is composed of the different membranes that are suspended in the cytoplasm within a eukaryotic cell. Contains Transport Vesicles |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| process and package macromolecules, such as proteins and lipids, after their synthesis and before they make their way to their destination; it is particularly important in the processing of proteins for secretion. |
|
|
Term
| Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum |
|
Definition
| has functions in several metabolic processes, including synthesis of lipids and steroids, metabolism of carbohydrates, regulation of calcium concentration, drug detoxification, attachment of receptors on cell membrane proteins, and steroid metabolism. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| are spherical organelles that contain enzymes (acid hydrolases). They break up food so it is easier to digest |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Takes in food and puts out ATP. Primary souce of energy production. |

Term
|
Definition
| between micro filaments and micro tubes. Stabilize the neucleous. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| are the thinnest filaments of the cytoskeleton found in the cytoplasm of all eukaryotic cells. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| is a cellular "scaffolding" or "skeleton" contained within the cytoplasm and is made out of protein. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Microtubules serve as structural components within cells and are involved in many cellular processes including mitosis, cytokinesis, and vesicular transport. Also the Largest and determins the shape of the cell. |

|
Definition
| a hairlike projection from the surface of a cell; provides locomotion in free-swimming unicellular organisms |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| is a tail-like projection that protrudes from the cell body of certain prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, and functions in locomotion. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Membrane bound organelle which are essentially enclosed compartments which are filled with water containing inorganic and organic molecules including enzymes in solution |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| located outside the cell membrane and provides these cells with structural support and protection, and also acts as a filtering mechanism. |

|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Channels which traverse cell walls of plant cells enabling transport and communication between them. |
