,2
Ans: Membrane bound structure, controls cell division and contains genetic
information/material
Cytoplasm
Ans: Cytoplasmic matrix that surrounds organelles
Mitochondria
Ans: Primary energy maker, responsible for cellular respiration & energy
production, makes ATP
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
Ans: An endomembrane system where lipids are synthesized, calcium levels are
regulated, and toxic substances are broken down.
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
Ans: An endomembrane system covered with ribosomes where many proteins for
transport are assembled.
Golgi apparatus
Ans: A system of membranes that modifies and packages proteins for export by the cell
Lysosomes
Ans: originate in Golgi, 40 digestive/degradative enzymes that catalyze proteins,
lipids, nucleic acids, carbs
Peroxisomes

, 3
Ans: Contain oxidative enzymes that detoxify compounds and fatty acids and
breakdown substances into harmless products
Cytoskeleton
Ans: A network of fibers that holds the cell together, helps the cell to keep its shape,
and aids in movement
Vesicles
Ans: small membrane sacs that specialize in moving products into, out of, and within a
cell
Vacuole
Ans: Cell organelle that stores materials such as water, salts, proteins, and
carbohydrates
Ribosomes
Ans: RNA protein complex that is responsible for protein synthesis (free & attached)
Cell membrane (plasma membrane)
Ans: phospholipid bilayer that surrounds all cells and regulates what enters and leaves
the cell
