1. ANABOLISM Process of building up complex
materals (proteins) from simple
materials.
2. CATABOLISM Process of breaking down complex
materials (foods) to form simpler
substances and release energy.
3. CELL MEMBRANE Structure surrounding and protecting
the cell. It determins what enters and
leaves the cell.
4. CHROMOSOMES Rod-shaped structures in the nucleus
that contain regions of DNA called
genes. There are 46 chromosomes
(23 pairs) in every cell except for the
egg and speerm cells,which contain
, only 23 individual, unpaired
chromosomes.
5. CYTOPLASM All the material that is outside the
nucleus and yet contained with the
cell membrane.
6. DNA Chemical found within each
chromosome. Arranged like a
sequence of recipes in code, it
directs the activities of the cell.
7. ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM Sturcture (canals) within the
cytoplasm. Site in which large
proteins are made from smaller
protein pieces. Ribosmes are found
on the endoplasmic reticulum.
8. GENES Regions of DNA within each
chromosme.
9. KARYOTYPE Picture of chromosomes in the
nucleus of a cell. The chromosimes
are arranged in numerical order to
determine their mumber and
structure.
10. METABOLISM The total of the chemical oprocesses
in a cell. It includes both catablolism
