Cellular Structures & Organelles Review

Cytoplasm

• the semifluid environment inside the plasma membrane

• is a thick rigid mesh of fibers that surrounds the outside of the plasma membrane that protects the cell and gives it support. Only found in plants.

• these structures are are longer and less numerous than cilia and they move with a whiplike motion

Cytoskeleton

• the semifluid environment inside the plasma membrane

• are short numerous projections that look like hairs

• is a supporting network of long, thin protein fibers that form a framework for the cell and provide an anchor for the organelles

Cell wall

• are short numerous projections that look like hairs

• organelles made of microtubles that function during cell division

• is a thick rigid mesh of fibers that surrounds the outside of the plasma membrane that protects the cell and gives it support. Only found in plants.

Flagella

• these structures are are longer and less numerous than cilia and they move with a whiplike motion

• are organelles made up of microtubules that function during cell division

• the site where ribosomes are produced

Centrioles

• are organelles made up of microtubules that function during cell division

• the site where ribosomes are produced

• the is where energy is made in the cell and converts fuel into energy

Mitochondria

• found only on plants, these organelles captures light energy and convert it to chemical energy through a process called photosynthesis

• the is where energy is made in the cell and converts fuel into energy

• the organelle that help manufacture or make proteins

Chloroplasts

• is a membrane system of folded sacs and interconnected channels that serves as the site for protein and lipid synthesis

• a flattened stack of membranes that modiefies, sorts and packages proteins into sacs called vesicles

• found only on plants, these organelles captures light energy and convert it to chemical energy through a process called photosynthesis

Golgi Apparatus

• a flattened stack of membranes that modiefies, sorts and packages proteins into sacs called vesicles

• a membrane system of folded sacs and interconected channels that serves as the site for protein and lipid synthesis

• an organelles that help manufacture protein

Endoplasmic Reticulum

• the area of endoplasmic reticulum where ribosomes are attached

• the area where of endoplasmic reticulum where NO ribosomes are attached

• a membrane system of folded sacs and interconected channels that serves as the site for protein and lipid synthesis

Smooth Endoplastic Reticulum

• the area where in endoplasmic reticulum where NO ribosomes are attached

• the area in the endoplasmic reticulum where there are ribosomes are attached

• this is where a temporary storage of materials happens witihin the cytoplasm
