double membrane bound organelle that contains genetic material (DNA)

membrane around the nucleus containing nucleur pores

what is the function of the nucleus envelope?

allow substances in and out of the nucleus

what is the function of the nucleur pores?

a network of membranes with ribosomes attached and is the site of protein synthesis (making)

what is the function of the RER (rough endoplasmic reticulum)?

transports proteins from the RER to the golgi body 

what is the function of the transport vesicle?

a network of membranes responsible for lipid and steroid synthesis and storage

what is the function of the SER (smooth endoplasmic reticulum)?

true or false- the SER contains ribosomes

receives proteins from the RER and modifies, packages and secretes the proteins into a secretory vesicle

what is the function of the golgi apparatus (golgi body)?

transport proteins from the golgi body to the plasma membrane

what is the function of the secretory vesicle?

site of cellular (aerobic) respiration and provides energy for the cell and produces ATP

what is the function of the mitochondria?

double membrane bound (contains an inner and outer membrane) and also contains cristae

what is the structure of the mitochondria?

foods in the inner membrane of the mitochondria

site of photosynthesis and found in plants, containing chlorophyll which absorbs light energy 

double membrane bound (contains an inner and outer membrane) and also contains a thylakoid membrane

what is the structure of the chloroplast?

specialised vesicles which contain hydrolytic enzymes to digest waste material and old organelles

true or false- lysosomes have a single membrane

nucleus, RER, SER, golgi body, mitochondria, chloroplast, lysosomes

what are all the membrane-bound organelles? (organelles that are held in place by a membrane)

ribosomes, centrioles, cilia, flagella, cytoskeleton

component of the cytoskeleton which is involved in the assembly of spindle fibres

hair-like structures in lungs that waft mucus

perform tail-like movement for cells to move (e.g. in sperm cells)

internal frameworks inside cells which is used for support, cell movement, and holding organelles in place 

what is the function of the cytoskeleton?
