Organelle that control flagella and celia and involved with cell replication and is composed of two centriole along with protein matrix
Chromosome
Threadlike linear strand of DNA and associated proteins in the nucleus that carries the genes and functions in the transmission of hereditary information
Cilia
Slender protuberances that project from cell body that function to move extracellular fluids and small molecules
Citric acid cycle
Series of enzyme?catalized biochemical reactions that uses acetyl?coenzyme A (from glucose) and oxygen and produces ATP and CO2
Deoxyribonucleic acid
Two long chains of nucleotides twisted into a double helix and joined by hydrogen bonds between the complementary bases adenine and thymine or cytosine and guanine that carries the genetic information in the cell
DNA
Two long chains of nucleotides twisted into a double helix and joined by hydrogen bonds between the complementary bases adenine and thymine orcytosine and guanine that carries the genetic information in the cell
Endoplasmic reticulum
Organelles composed of interconnected network of tubules, vesicles, and cisternae within cells that synthesize lipids and proteins
Exocytosis
Process by which a cell directs secretory or excretory vesicles out of the cell membrane
Flagella
Tail?like projections that protrudes from the cell body and functions in locomotion
Gene
Hereditary unit consisting of a sequence of DNA that occupies a specific location on a chromosome and determines a particular characteristic in an organism
Glycolysis
Biochemical reaction involving the breakdown of glucose (6C) to two pyruvate (3C) molecules
Golgi Apparatus
Functions to process and package of macromolecules produced by cells into vesicles after their synthesis and prior to secretion
Krebs cycle
Series of enzyme?catalized biochemical reactions that uses acetyl?coenzyme A (from glucose) and oxygen and produces ATP and CO2
Lysosome
Specialized vesicle that contain enzymes. They absorb and break up cellular debris.
Microvilli
Slender protuberances that serve to increase surface area to aid in absorption and secretion
Mitochondria
Double membrane, oblong shaped organelle that generate most of the cell's supply ATP by TCA cycle
Nuclear envelope
Dobule lipid bi?layer membrane that encloses the nucleus and serves as the physical barrier, separating the genetic material from the cytoplasm
Nuclear membrane Dobule lipid bi?layer membrane that encloses the nucleus and serves as the physical barrier, separating the genetic material from the cytoplasm
Nuclear pore
Large protein molecules that cross the nuclear envelope that are used to transport molecules across nuclear envelope
Ribsome
Small organelle that functions in protein production and is responsible for processing the genetic instructions carried by mRNA
Rough endoplasmic reticulum
Organelles whose membrane is continuous with the outer membrane of the nuclear envelope and is studded with ribosomes that manufacture and package proteins
Smooth endoplasmic reticulu
Organelle whose membrane is smooth and functions to synthesize lipids and steroids, metabolize carbohydrates and steroids, and regulate calcium concentration
TCA cycle
Series of enzyme?catalized biochemical reactions that uses acetyl?coenzyme A (from glucose) and oxygen and produces ATP and CO2
Tricarboxylic acid cycle
Series of enzyme?catalized biochemical reactions that uses acetyl?coenzyme A (from glucose) and oxygen and produces ATP and CO2
Vesicle
Bubble?like structure with at least one phospholipid by?layer that stores and transports cellular products within the cell
Villi
Slender protuberances that serve to increase surface area to aid in absorption and secretion
