Many of these structures act as if
they are specialized organs.
Organelles
Contains nearly all of the cell’s
DNA and the coded instructions
for making proteins and other
important molecules
Nucleus
Small dense region found in the
nucleus of eukaryotic cells. The
assembly of ribosomes begins
here.
Nucleolus
Small particles of RNA and
protein found throughout the
cytoplasm. They are in charge of
protein synthesis
ribosomes
Internal membrane system of
folded sacs and tunnels within a
eukaryotic cell. One part of it is
key for protein synthesis
Endoplasmic reticulum
Modifies, sorts and packages
proteins and other materials
from the endoplasmic reticulum
for storage in the cell or
secretion outside of the cell.
AKA: UPS
Golgi aparatus
Small organelles filled with
enzymes. They are responsible
for the breakdown of lipids,
carbohydrates and proteins so
they can be used by the rest of
the cell. They break down
“junk” organelles. AKA: the
cleaning crew
lysosomes
Structure that is filled with
liquid. Its pressure makes it
possible for plants to support
heavy structures such as leaves
and flowers.
vacuoles
These organelles convert
chemical energy found in food
into compounds that are more
convenient for the cell to use
mitochondria
Organelles that capture energy
from the sunlight and convert it
into chemical energy in a
process called photosynthesis
chloroplast
These kind of cells have this.
nucleus
The two groups that eukaryotic
cells are divided into.
Animal cells and plant cells
Term that describes the fact that
eukaryotes are composed of
more than one cell.
Multi-cellular
Their genetic material is found
in their __________.
nucleus
Filled with internal structures
called __________.
organelles
These cells are known for their
lack of a __________.
nucleus
These organisms are the most
common example of
prokaryotes.
bacteria
They are made of one cell in
other words they are
___________.
unicellular
Some use this structure as a
means for locomotion or
movement
flagella
Prokaryotic cells are usually
_____________ and
______________ than
eukaryotic cells.
Smaller and simpler
Plant cells have this structure
surrounding it while animals
cells do not.
Cell wall
Animals cells have this structure
while plant cells do not.
Cilia or Flagella
for movement
A network of protein filaments
that helps the cell to maintain its
shape. It is also involved in
movement and is found in
eukaryotic cells.
cytoskeleton
Rough endoplasmic reticulum
are considered rough because
they have __________ on their
surface.
ribosomes
Prokaryotes and eukaryotes are
alike in that they both have a
_______ _____________ and
at some point in their lives they
contain _____
Cell membrane
DNA
