1.
Theory that all organisms consist of one or more cells, which are the basic unit of life; all cells come from division of pre-existing cells; and all cells pass hereditary material to offspring.
2.
Semifluid substance enclosed by a cell's plasma membrane.
3.
Of a eukaryotic cell, organelle with a double membrane that holds the cell's DNA.
4.
Structure that carries out a specialized metabolic function inside a cell.
5.
Membrane that encloses a cell and separates it from the external environment.
6.
A relationship in which the volume of an object increases with the cube of the diameter, and the surface area increases with the square.
7.
Community of microorganisms living within a shared mass of secreted slime.
8.
Rigid but permeable structure that surrounds the plasma membrane of some cells.
9.
Long, slender cellular structure used for motility.
10.
Of a bacterium or archaeon, region of cytoplasm where the DNA is concentrated.
11.
Small circle of DNA in some bacteria and archaea.
12.
Organelle of protein synthesis.
13.
In a cell a dense irregularly shaped region where ribosomal subunits are assembled.
14.
Viscous fluid enclosed by the nuclear envelope.
15.
Multifunctional network of membrane-enclosed organelles (endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi bodies, vesicles)
16.
Membrane-enclosed organelle that is a system of sacs and tubes extending from the nuclear envelope. Smooth ER makes phospholipids, stores calcium, and has additional functions in some cells; ribosomes on the surface of rough ER make proteins.
17.
Organelle that modifies proteins and lipids, then packages the finished products into vesicles.
18.
Enzyme-filled vesicle that breaks down cellular waste and debris
19.
Enzyme-filled vesicle that breaks down fatty acids, Amino acids, and toxic substances.
20.
Large, fluid-filled vesicle that isolates or breaks down waste, debris, toxins, or food.
21.
Membrane-enclosed organelle; different kinds store, transport, or break down their contents.
22.
This eukaryotic organelle specializes in producing ATP.
23.
Organelle of photosynthesis in the cells of plants and photosynthetic protists.
24.
One of several types of double membranes organelles in plants and algal cells; for example, a chloroplast or amyloplast.
25.
Barrel-shaped organelle from which microtubules grow.
26.
Network of protein filaments that support, organize, and move eukaryotic cells and their internal structures.
27.
Reinforcing cytoskeletal element that functions in cell movement; a fiber of actin subunits .
28.
Cytoskeletal element involved in movement; hollow filament of tubulin subunits.
29.
Protein Type of energy-using protein that interacts with cytoskeletal elements to move the cell's parts or the whole cell.
30.
Cell Junction that fastens an animal cell to another cell, or to basement membrane. connect cytoskeletal elements inside the cell; Composed of adhesion proteins.
31.
Structure that connects a cell to another cell or to extracellular matrix
32.
Matrix (ECM) Complex mixture of cell secretions; it's composition and function vary by cell type.
33.
Junction Cell Junction that forms a closable channel across the plasma membranes of adjoining animal cells.
34.
Cell Junction that fastens together the plasma membrane of adjacent animal cells; collectively prevents fluids from leaking between the cells.
