Cell Structure and Function

Powerhouse of the cell, energy availability

• Mitochondria

• Ribosomes

• Nucleus

• Endoplasmic Reticulum

The function of a catalyst in a chemical reaction is to decrease the

• Activation Energy

• Reaction Rate

• Temperature

• Pressure

loosing water to build polymers

• Dehydration synthesis

• Condensation reaction

• Polymerization

Found only in plant cells; site of photosynthesis; contains chlorophyll

• Mitochondria

• Chloroplast

• Ribosome

• Nucleus

Contains coded directions for the production of proteins and cell division. DNA is located here.
