Cells The building blocks of all living things


Tissues Groups of cells that are similar in structure and function


Nucleus Control center of cell, contains DNA, necessary for cell reproduction.


Nuclear Envelope Encloses the jelly-like fluid nucleoplasm in which other nuclear elements are
suspended


Nucleoli One or more may be present in the nucleus, site of ribosome assembly


Chromatin When a cell is not dividing, its DNA is combined with protein and forms a loose
network of bumpy threads called _________.




Chromosomes When a cell is dividing to form two daughter cells, the chromatin threads coil and

Plasma Membrane A fragile, transparent barrier that contains the cell contents and separates them
from the surrounding environment.




Hydrophobic The __________ makeup of the membrane interior makes the plasma membrane
relatively impermeable to most water-soluble molecules.




Tight Junctions Impermeable, bind cells together into leak-proof sheets


Desmosomes Anchoring junctions that prevent cells from being pulled apart


Gap junctions Allow communication between cells


Cytoplasm The cellular material outside the nucleus, inside the plasma membrane. The
"factory area" of the cell.


Cytosol Semi-transparent fluid that suspends other elements


Organelles Metabolic machinery of the cell
