Eukaryotic Cell Features

Cytosol is...

• a region with no membrane that contains DNA

• the interior, jellylike fluid of the cell

• extensive network of flattened membranes and tubules

• an outer coat surrounding the cell wall

Chromosomes...

• carry DNA in segments called genes

• are tiny structures where proteins are made

• are metabolic compartments that breakdown fatty acids to be used as fuel

• are the double membrane envelope that controls the flow of information in and out of the nucleus

Sac within the cytoplasm that is full of fluid; plants have one large; stores food, water, etc.

• vacuole
• cell wall
• lysosome
• ribosome
