  7. 7The gentic material __1__ has the instructures for building __2_ that builds cells>tissues>ograns1. DNA
    2. proteins
  8. 8Chromatina loose network of threads formed formed by the combination of DNA and proteins that are scatted throughout the nucleus during interphrase ( cell not divided)
  9. 9Chromosomesis the tightly coiled version of chromosomes that occurs during metosis
  10. 10The Plasma/Cell Membranea transport barrier that contains the cell's contents and seprates them from the surrounding env.
  11. 11Microvillitiny finger-like projection that greatly increase the cell' surface for absortion
  12. 12Tight junctionBonds two cells together into leak proof sheets that prevent substance from pressing through the extracellular space
    (Ex. skin cells)
  13. 13DesmosomesHold cells together and prevent the cells from being subjected to mechial cell from being pulled apart.
  14. 14Gap junctionsallow direct passage of molecules such as nutrients from one cell to another
  15. 15Cytoplasmconsists of the cell material outside of the nucleus and inside the cell membrane
  16. 16cytosolis the semi-transparent fluid which suspends the elements inside the cell
  17. 17inclusionsare stored nutriets such as fat and pigment such as melaton seen in the skin and hair cells
  18. 18organellesthe metabolic machinery of a cell
  19. 19__________________ is the powerhouse of the cell and contains enzymes to breakdown food,Mitochondria

    2. ATP
  21. 21____ provides the energy a cell needs for its many activities1. ATP
  22. 22Ribosomesare the actual sites of protein sythesis in the cell
  23. 23Endoplastic reticulum (ER)a system of fluid filled canals that coil and twist through the cytoplasm
  24. 24The ER serves as a mini circulatory system for the cell, b/c it provides a _______ for carrying sub. from one part of the cell to another.natural channels
  25. 25Rough ERcontain protein producing ribosomes and the amount of rough ER a cell to another.
  26. 26Ribosomesare the amount of protein a cell makes (muscle cell = )
  27. 27Smooth ERnetwork of channels, but and breaks down cholestrol and detoxifies drugs.(liver)
  28. 28Golgi Apparastusa stack of flat membranes sacs that function in modfying and packaging proteins ( from rough ER via vesicles)
