Plasma membrane?
|
External boundary of the cell, confines cell contents. regulates entry and exit of membrane.
|
Cytoplasm
|
Cellular region between the nuclear and plasma membrane, fluid containing organelles
|
Mitochondria
|
Scattered throughout the cell, controls release of enery from foods, forms ATP
|
Ribosomes
|
Attached to membranes or scattered in cytoplasm, synthesize proteins.
|
Rough ER
|
Cytoplasm, proteins bound to transport to the golgi apparatus
|
Smooth ER
|
Cytoplasm, site of lipid and steriod synthesis
|
Golgi Apparatus
|
Cytoplasm, packages, modifies, and segregates proteins.
|
Lysosomes
|
Cytoplasm, membranuous sacs containing acid hydrolases
|
Peroxisomes
|
Budding from the golgi apparatus, enzymes detoxify
|
Microtubules
|
Internal structure of centrioles, part of the cytoskeleton, organizing center.
|
Microfilaments
|
In the microvilli, contractile protein, moves cell or cell parts, core of microvilli
|
Intermediate filaments
|
Part of the cytoskeleton, stable elements that resist tension on the cell
|
Centrioles
|
Two rod shaped bodies near the nucleus, "spin" the mitotic spindle.
|
Cilia
|
Exposed on surfaces of cells, act too move substances across cell surface in one direction
|
Flagella
|
Cilium like, but longer. humans: sperm tail.
