Cell Function Activity • Try to figure out the name that goes with the function before the answer appears
Transport Proteins • are used to move needed substances or waste material through the plasma membrane
A True Nucleus • Found in the center of every eukaryotic cell • contains the DNA • Manages cellular functions
Chromatin • Long strands of genetic material (DNA) found in the nucleus, contain the master set of proteins, found in plant and animal cells
Chromosomes • When a cell divides, the chromatin condenses to form these DNA strands
Nucleolus • are found in the nucleus and make the ribosomes
Ribosomes • The sites where the cell produces proteins according to the DNA
Translated RNA • are the blueprints containing DNA
Nuclear Envelope • a structure that separates the nucleus from the cytoplasm
Cytoplasm • is the clear, gelatinous fluid inside a cell • suspends the cell’s organelles
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) • Only found in eukaryotic cells • The site where cellular chemical reactions occur
Golgi apparatus • Only found in eukaryotic cells • Flattened stack of tubular membranes that modify the proteins • Sorts proteins into packages and packs them
Vesicles • Sends the protein packages from Golgi Apparatus to the proper destinations (like the post office sorts the mail)
Vacuoles • Only found in eukaryotic cells • Compartments that temporary store materials. • Some store food, while others store waste, enzymes, and other materials
Lysosomes • Only found in some eukaryotic cells • Contain digestive enzymes • They digest excess and worn organelles, food particles, and engulf viruses or bacteria
Chloroplast • found in green plant cells and some protists • are like the nucleus, has a double membrane
Thylakoid membranes • The inner membrane system of chloroplast • Function is to caught the energy from the sun
Grana • Resemble a stack of coins in the chloroplast
Plastids • Agroup of plant organelles in the chloroplast • which are used for storage
Chlorophyll • Green Chloroplast pigment
Mitochondria • Only found in eukaryotic cells • Power house
Cytoskeleton • Only found in eukaryotic cells • forms the framework of the cell (like the skeleton inside us)
Microtubules • thin cylinder rods made of proteins
Microfilaments • are smaller than microtubules • solid protein filaments
Centrioles- • organelles found in the cells of animals and most protists • They occur in pairs and are made up of microtubules • play a role in cell division
Cilia • are numerous short hair-like projections
