Organelles
Flashcards do conjunto (7)
- 1NucleusUsually the most prominent structure in a cell, containing the genetic material; controls the activities of the cell
- 2MitochondrionSelf-replicating cell organelle in which the latter stages of aerobic respiration occur. Evidence of endosymbiotic event in early evolution
Break down the sugars and nutrients that the cell receives (opposite of chloroplasts - 3Golgi BodyFound in most cells. Packaging organelle like the endoplasmic reticulum. Combines simple molecules to create more complex molecules, then puts them in vesicles and stores or removes from cell.
Organelle that builds lysosomes (cell digestion machines) - 4Endoplasmic ReticulumWorks with golgi apparatus, ribosomes, RNA, mRNA, tRNA. Creates network of membranes found throughout the whole cell
Smooth ER: storage organelle
Rough ER: synthesises and packages proteins - 5ChloroplastOnly found in plant cells. Food producers of the cell. “photosynthesis”. Makes sugars, starches and oxygen from energy from the sun with CO2 and H2O
Two membranes protect the inner parts. Stroma is inside and is where reactions occur / sugars are created - 6VacuoleStorage bubbles found in cells. Stores food / nutrients / water / waste.
Membrane that surrounds a mass of fluid - 7OrganellesSmall structures within the cytoplasm of cells such as; the nucleus, mitochondrion, ribosomes etc. Each organelle has a particular structure and important function within the cell
