Pinocytotic Vesicle
|
Allows macromolecular droplets and particles enter the cell through the cell
|
Lysosome
|
Digests cell nutrients
|
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
|
Transports materials through cell and produces proteins
|
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
|
Produces and digests lipids(fats) and membrane proteins; contains enzymes; moves newly-made proteins and lipids to the Golgi body and membranes
|
Cell Membrane
|
Semipermeable; allows some substances to pass into cell and blocking others
|
Mitochondrion
|
Produces ATP (adenosine triphosate)
|
Golgi Apparatus
|
Packages proteins and carbohydrates into vesicles for ‘export’ from the cell
|
Nucleolus
|
Produces ribosomal RNA
|
Nucleus
|
Contains DNA (in chromosomes); controls many of the cell’s functions
|
Centrioles
|
Help to organize the assembly of microtubules during cell division; they replicate during mitosis and meiosis
|
Microtubules
|
Movement, cell shape and formation of mitotic spindles during cell division
|
Cytoplasm
|
Jellylike material outside the cell nucleus in which the organelles are located
|
Ribosome
|
Sites of protein synthesis
|
Chloroplast
|
Contains chlorophyll; photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts
|
Cell Wall
|
Thick, rigid; surrounds a plant cell; gives the cell most of its support and structure
