- involved in the production and transportation of calcium and lipids
- site of cellular chemical reactions; transports materials throughout the cell; connects the nucleus to the cell membrane
- site of protein synthesis; transports proteins to the golgi body; has attached ribosomes
- small organelles filled with digestive enzymes that break down substances used by the cell
- structures composed of protein and DNA in the nucleus of a cell about to divide
- stack of flattened membranes that sort processes and packages proteins;
- found in plant cells; the site of photosynthesis; use sunlight to make food; contain chlorophyll
- german botanist discovered that all plants were made of cells
- network of protein synthesis filaments that helps the cell to maintain its shape and functions; made of microfilaments (solid) and microtubules (hollow)
- german physician discovered that cells can only come from preexisting cells after observing mitosis
- the site of protein synthesis; made up by the nucleolus; makes proteins; form peptide bonds
- in the nucleus, during mitosis, chromatin condenses to form
