Cellular Structure and Function
20
vacuole: Stores materials within the cell (food, water, waste, etc.)
central vacuole: Stores water and provides structural support in plant cells
chloroplast: Closely stacked, flattened sacs; contains chlorophyll; the site of photosynthesis
ribosomes: The site of protein synthesis; most numerous organelle
endoplasmic reticulum: Transports materials within the cell; rough has ribosomes attached, smooth has no ribosomes
cytoplasm: The material that the organelles are suspended in; the region inside the cell except for the nucleus
nucleus: The organelle that manages and controls all of the cell functions in a eukaryotic cell; the “control center”
lysosome: Digests excess or worn-out cell parts, food particles, and invading viruses and bacteria
cell wall: Firm, protective structure that gives the cell its shape in plants, fungi, most bacteria, and some protists; made of cellulose
mitochondria: Produce a usable form of energy for the cell; the “powerhouse”
Golgi apparatus: Labels and packages vesicles containing macromolecules for transport inside and out of the cell
nucleolus: Site where ribosomes are made
cell membrane: The membrane surrounding the cell; phospholipid bilayer
cytoskeleton: Consists of hollow tubes that provide support for the cell, has two “subparts” (microtubules and microfilaments)
chromatin: Name for the collection of DNA in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells
cell theory: States that all living things are composed of cells, new cells are produced from existing cells, and cells are the basic unit of structure and function in organisms
prokaryote: a simple cell with no membrane-bound organelles or true nucleus
eukaryote: a complex cell with many membrane-cound organelles and a true nucleus
cell: the term created by Robert Hooke; describes the "chambers" he saw when examining cork under a microscope
living cells: Anton von Leeuwenhoek was one of the first scientists to examine ___________ ________ under a microscope.
