Card preview (24)
Plasma Membrane
Location: External boundary of the cell Function: Confines cell contents; regulates entry and exit of materials “GATEKEEPER” selectively permeable
Lysosomes
Location: All throughout cell Function: Degrade material of cell “garbage collector”
Mitochondria
Location: Scattered all throughout the cell Function: Control release of energy from foods, form ATP, powerhouse of cell, ENERGY
Microvilli
Location: Projections of the plasma membrane Function: Increase the membrane surface area Finger like structures
Golgi Apparatus
Location: Near the nucleus Function: Packages proteins FINAL INSPECTOR
Nucleus
Location: In the middle/center Function: Stores genetic material (DNA), Headquarters of cells
Centrioles
Location: Two rod-shaped bodies near the nucleus Function: Direct formation of the mitotic spindle
Nucleolus
Location: Center of the nucleus Function: Makes ribosomes (proteins), where RNA is made
Smooth ER
Location: Cytoplasm Function: Synthesize lipids CLEAN OUT LIVER
Rough ER
Location: Cytoplasm/Nucleus Function: Synthesize proteins Tunnel way through cell
Ribosomes
Location: Attached to membrane systems or scattered in the cytoplasm Function: Synthesize proteins
Chromatin
Location: Nucleus Function: DNA Non-dividing
Peroxisomes
Location: Scattered in cytoplasm Function: Detoxify alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, etc.
Inclusions
Location: Near smooth ER Function: Adjust cell environment
Ion Channel Protein
Potassium ion to get inside of cell
