Chlorophyll-- A light-absorbing chemical that traps the energy in sunlight and converts it to chemical energy Lysosome-- Structure in a cell that contains powerful chemicals that break down harmful molecules and recycles worn out cell parts Bacteria-- Single celled organisms that sometimes cause disease Ribosomes--Structures in cytoplasm where proteins are made Unicellular-- An organism that is made up of a single cell Mitochondria-- Release stored energy from sugars Organelle-- Structure in a cell that is enclosed by a membrane and performs a specific function Nucleolus-- Structure located inside the nucleus, whose function is to produce proteins Specialization-- Specific cells have specific functions Organism— An individual form of life that uses energy to carry out the activities of life Prokaryotes-- Cells that lack a nucleus and other organelles Nucleus-- Organelle that controls the cell Cell wall-- Supports and protects the plant cell Microscope-- An instrument that uses lenses to make an object appear bigger than it really is Chloroplasts--Green, often oval, structure in plant cells used in food production Vacuole-- Stores food and waste products Cytoplasm-- Jelly-like substance surrounding the nucleus Cell membrane-- Determines what enters and leaves the cell Eukaryotic-- Cells in which the genetic material is enclosed within a nucleus Multicellular-- An organism that is made of up more than one cell Endoplasmic Reticulum-- Network of folded membranes that is the cell’s transportation system Golgi apparatus-- Structure in a cell that prepares proteins for use or export
