Endomembrane system

Front

regulates protein traffic and performs metabolic functions in the cell

Back

Fimbriae (prokaryote)

Front

short appendages in some bacteria that help attach to appropriate

Back

Secretion

Front

a process by which substances are produced and discharged from a cell, gland, or organ for a particular function in the organism or for excretion.

Back

Rough ER

Front

studded with ribosomes processing, folding and modification of proteins

Back

Ribosome

Front

makes proteins

Back

Cell walls

Front

A rigid layer of organic material surrounding delicate cell membranes of bacteria

Back

Prokaryote

Front

A unicellular organism that lacks a nucleus and membrane bound organelles

Back

Organelle

Front

small, membranous structures in the cytoplasm having specific structure and function

Back

pigments

Front

proteins that give color

Back

Nucleoid (Prokaryotes)

Front

a region of the cytoplasm where a single bacteria chromosome is located

Back

Chromatin (nucleus)

Front

consists of DNA and associated proteins

Back

Gogli Apparatus

Front

Modifies, sorts, packages and ships out proteins to where they are needed

Back

Nuclear pores

Front

openings that permit transport of protein and ribosomal subunits

Back

Vacuole

Front

storage center for water, pigments, and toxins. it is a large membranous sac.

Back

Polyribosomes

Front

Strings of ribosomes that work together to translate a RNA message.

Back

Chromosomes (nucleus)

Front

DNA is found here

Back

Exocytosis

Front

Process by which a cell releases large amounts of material

Back

nuclear envelope

Front

layer of two membranes that surrounds the nucleus of a cell

Back

Eukaryote

Front

A cell that contains a nucleus and membrane bound organelles

Back

Smooth ER

Front

Has no ribosomes, stores calcium ions

Back

Endoplasmic Reticulum

Front

an internal membrane system in which components of cell membrane and some proteins are constructed

Back

Cellulose

Front

A substance (made of sugars) that is common in the cell walls of many organisms

Back

Nucleoplasm

Front

Fluid inside the nucleus

Back

Nucleolus

Front

Found inside the nucleus and produces ribosomes

Back

Flagellum (prokaryote)

Front

Back

Lignin

Front

substance in vascular plants that makes cell walls rigid (woody plants)

Back

Nucleus

Front

storage of genetic information, synthesis of DNA and RNA

Back

Cell wall (prokaryotes)

Front

located outside of plasma membrane consisting of peptidoglycan

Back

Endocytosis

Front

process by which a cell takes material into the cell by infolding of the cell membrane

Back

Ribosomes

Front

site of protein synthesis

Back

capsule (prokaryote)

Front

A gelatinous sheath that surrounds the cell wall of some bacteria

Back

plasma membrane (prokaryote)

Front

Back

Chitin

Front

A chemical that provides both toughness and flexibility

Back

rRNA

Front

ribosomal RNA; type of RNA that makes up part of the ribosome

Back

cell membrane

Front

thin, flexible barrier around a cell; regulates what enters and leaves the cell

Back

Eukaryotic cells

Front

structurally complete. plants, fungi, and protists

Back

endoplasmic reticulum

Front

an internal membrane system in which components of cell membrane and some proteins are constructed

Back

Thylakoids

Front

membrane of flattened disks that contain light sensitive pigments cyanobacteria

Back

Nucleus envelope

Front

a double membrane that separates the nucleus from the cytoplasm

Back

Lysosomes

Front

acts as a garbage disposal of the cell, breakdown of unwanted, foreign substances or worn out parts of cells

Back
