Cells and Photosynthesis
The cell wall is the usually rigid nonliving permeable wall that surrounds the plasma membrane. It encloses and supports the cells of most plants, bacteria, fungi, and algae. Cell Wall
Centrosome • Small region of cytoplasm adjacent to the nucleus • Contains the centrioles and serves to organize the microtubules
This is a double membrane enclosing a cell nucleus and having its outer part continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum Nuclear Membrane
Mitochondrion Cell organelle that converts the chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are more convenient for the cell to use
A microscopic single-celled organism that has neither a distinct nucleus with a membrane nor other specialized organelles. Prokaryotes include the bacteria and cyanobacteria Prokaryotic
A theory that • the cell is the fundamental structural and functional unit of living matter and • that the organism is composed of autonomous cells with its properties being the sum of those of its cells Cell Theory
Cellular Respiration Process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen
Cytoplasm This is a watery, gel-like substance made of mostly salt and water It provides a structure for the cell parts so they can move freely within the cell membrane
This is very thin membrane, composed of lipids and protein It surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell and controls the passage of substances into and out of the cell Cell Membrane
Lysosome Cell organelle that breaks down lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins into small molecules that can be used by the rest of the cell
It has a nuclear membrane that surrounds the nucleus, in which the well defined chromosomes (bodies containing the hereditary material) are located Eukaryotic
Cell division in which the nucleus divides into nuclei containing the same number of chromosomes Mitosis
Amyloplast Non-pigmented organelles found in some plant cells. They are responsible for the synthesis and storage of starch granules, through the polymerization of glucose
Vacuole Cell organelle that stores materials such as water, salts, proteins, and carbohydrates
Ribosomes Any of the RNA-rich cytoplasmic granules that are sites of protein synthesis
A hollow cylindrical struct ure in the cytoplasm of m ost cells, involved in intra cellular shape and transp ort Microtubules
Photosynthesis The process by which plants that contain chlorophyll make carbohydrates from water and from carbon dioxide in the air in the presence of light
Meiosis The form of cell division that creates gametes, or sex cells (eggs or sperm) is called meiosis
Network of tubular membra nes within the cytoplasm of the cell It has a smooth surface (smooth endoplasmic reticu lum) It is involved in the transport of materials Smooth ER
A dense organelle present in most eukaryotic cells, typically a single rounded structure bounded by a double membrane, containing the genetic material Nucleus
Organelle found in cells of plants and some other organisms that captures the energy from sunlight and converts it into chemical energy Chloroplast
An organelle found in the cells of eukaryotic organisms Endoplasmic Reticulum
Cell Basic unit of all forms of life
Cell Cycle A cycle of stages that cells pass through to allow them to divide and produce new cells
Rough ER Network of tubular membranes within the cytoplasm of the cell. It’s main function is transport of ribosomes to do their function of protein synthesis
Nucleus is storage center for DNA. Essentially the nucleolus is what makes the r. RNA into incomplete ribosomes. Nucleolus
Part of the cell's endomembrane system which has a number of functions, including sorting and processing proteins Golgi Body
Microscope An optical instrument used for viewing very small objects, such as mineral samples or animal or plant cells, typically magnified several hundred times
