Endoplasmic Reticulum

• network of membranes within the cytoplasm
• The theory that (1) all living things are composed of one or more cells (2)the cell is the basic unit of origination of organisms, and (3) all cell come from preexisting
• Signaling molecules that stimulate cell differentiation and development.
• the base of the brainstem; controls heartbeat and breathing

rough er

• compartmentalizes the cell
• carry blood away from the heart
• produce and release chemical signal molecules called autoinducers that increase in concentration as a function of cell density
• Large, flat muscle at the bottom of the chest cavity that helps with breathing

smooth er

• light dependent and light independent reactions
• the base of the brainstem; controls heartbeat and breathing
• detoxification and lipid synthesis
• reception, transduction, response

Golgi complex

• endocytosis
• organelle that modifies, packages, and transports material out of the cell.
• Diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane
• 2 ATP, 2 NADH, 2 pyruvate

Mitochondria

• The theory that (1) all living things are composed of one or more cells (2)the cell is the basic unit of origination of organisms, and (3) all cell come from preexisting
• directly or indirectly by ATP
• double membrane, produces atp
• -Communication between cells

Lysosomes

• Oxygen carrying pigment in red blood cells
• Movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
• liver (bile) and pancreas (pancreatic juice
• An organelle containing digestive enzymes

Vacuoles

• site of protein synthesis based on MRNA
• Stores food, water, wastes, and other materials
• chrollopyl
• organelle that modifies, packages, and transports material out of the cell.

Chroloplasts

• food mixed with digestive enzymes and acids in the stomach.
• endocytosis
• 2 ATP, 2 NADH, 2 pyruvate
• sites of photosynthesis in plant cells

Prokaryote

• internal control and external control
• channels between adjacent plant cells
• A unicellular organism that lacks a nucleus and membrane bound organelles
• carry blood away from the heart
