| Definition | Term |
| microtubular extension that moves in an oar-like rhythm perpendicular to its axis | |
| an example of a glycoprotein which bind to cell surface receptors | |
| specialized peroxisomes found in fat storing tissues of plant seeds to initiate the conversion of fatty acids to sugar | |
| cellular extensions | |
| sacs made of membrane | |
| the system that involves the synthesis of proteins and transport into membranes and organelles or out of the cell, metabolism and movement of lipids, and detoxification of poisons | |
| anchoring junctions that fastens cells together into strong sheets | |
| changes in cell location and limited movements of parts of the cell | |
| an oxidative organelle bounded by a single membrane that contains enzymes that transfer hydrogen to oxygen to produce hydrogen peroxide which is then converted to water | |
| the region in a prokaryotic cell where DNA is concentrated | |
| the process of taking cells apart then separating major organelles based on the components' sizes and densities | |
| the semifluid, jellylike substance in which organelles and other components are found | |
| the narrow region between the inner and outer membranes | |
| globular protein that makes up microfilaments | |
| a netlike array of protein filaments that maintains the shape of the nucleus by supporting the envelope | |
| structures only visible during cell division, carrying the gene information | |
| region between the nucleus and the plasma membrane | |
| microscope that uses a beam of electrons through a specimen or onto its surface instead of visible light | |
| used to pump out excess water from the cell to maintain a suitable concentration of ions and molecules within the cell | |
| thing and flexible wall first secreted by a young plant cell | |
| center of manufacturing, warehousing, sorting, and shipping; modification and storage; secretion | |
| the fluid outside the thylakoids that contains the DNA, ribosomes, and enzymes | |
| model in which the cisternae of the Golgi progresses from the cis to trans face of the Golgi, carrying and modifying the cargo as they move | |
| long, thin projections from the surface of the cell to increase surface area | |
| sacs and tubules making up the ER | |
| selective barrier that allows sufficient passage of oxygen, nutrients, and wastes | |
| the outer cytoplasmic layer of the cell, a semisolid | |
| process of engulfing solid particles (food particles or smaller organisms) | |
| where rRNA is synthesized | |
| anchors the microtubular extensions like the cilia and flagella | |
| each stack of thylakoids | |
| synthesis of lipids, metabolism of carbohydrates, detoxification of drugs and poisons, storage for Ca+ | |
| inner membrane infoldings within the mitochondrion | |
| extensive network of membranes | |
| extracellular structure of plant cells | |
| cell surface receptor proteins that transmit signals between the ECM and the cytoskeleton | |
| these proteins bring about the bending of cilia and flagella by gripping microtubules within the organelles and sliding them against each other | |
| protein that is interdigitated with thicker filaments; acts as a microfilament based motor protein so that projections walk along the actin filaments | |
| holds important compounds (proteins), main repository of inorganic ions, disposal sites for metabolic by-products, color pigments, contain poisonous compounds, main role in cell gr | |
| microscope mainly used for a detailed study of the surface of a specimen | |
