Plama Membrane(definition) Controls what moves in and out of cell- uses different proteins to perform this. Protects cell
Nucleus(definition) Stores genetic info
Nucleolus(definition) Creates ribosomes
Cytoplasm(definition) Holds organelles in place
Chloroplast(definition) Only found in plant cells. Creates cellular food and energy through photosynthesis.
Mitochondria(definition) Creates energy through cellular respiration
Ribosomes(definiton) "Read" RNA to help with creation on proteins
Golgi apparatus(definition) Packages materials into vesicles and sends them around cell
Rough ER(definition) Protein synthesis starts
Smooth ER(definition) Synthesis of Lipids
Vacuole(definition) Stores water and wastes
Lysosomes(Definition) Contain enzymes to break away/recycle waste
Cytoskeleton(defintion) provides structure and organization in the cell
centriole(definition) Only in animal cells. Helps in the division of cells. Directs movement of chromosomes and organelles
Cell wall(definition) provides structural support for the cell. Acts as protective barrier for cell membrane
Flagella(definition) helps in cell movement. More likely in prokaryotes than eukaryotic
