UPDATED VERSION 2026 EDITION
Biomolecules
organic molecules organized into 4 classes includes carbohydrates,
lipids, proteins and nucleic acids
ATP
(adenosine triphosphate) main energy source that cells use for most of
their work
cell theory
a foundational biological principle stating that all living things are
composed of cells, which are the basic units of structure and function,
and that all cells originate from pre-existing cells.
,Cell
basic building block of life
prokaryote and eukaryote
Heat are two broad types of cells?
Prokaryote
a unicellular organism that lacks a nucleus or any other membrane-bound
organelle
Eukaryote
multicellular organism whose cells contain a membrane-bound nucleus
and other specialized structures called organelles
organelles
specialized, membrane-bound structures within a cell that perform
specific jobs
animal and plant cells
which cells have similar organelles like ribosome, mitochondria, and an
endoplasmic reticulum
, Ribosomes
the essential cellular machines responsible for protein synthesis in all
living organisms aka makes protein
Mitochondria
membrane-bound organelles found in most eukaryotic cells that
generate the majority of the cell's chemical energy; powerhouse of the
cell; converts nutrients into ATP
Endoplasmic Reticulum
a continuous, labyrinthine membrane system in eukaryotic cells that acts
as a cellular factory and highway. It is responsible for producing, folding,
and transporting proteins and lipids
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER)
Studded with ribosomes on its outer surface, giving it a "rough"
appearance under a microscope. It is primarily responsible for
synthesizing, folding, and modifying proteins.
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER)
Lacks ribosomes on its surface. It is the site of lipid and steroid hormone
synthesis, and it plays a critical role in detoxifying drugs and metabolic
byproducts in liver cells.
plant cells
cell walls and chloroplasts are only found in
