Glycolysis
occurs in every living cell and produces ATP
1 of 12
Eukaryotes
have plasma membrane, cytoplasm, ribosomes, membrane-bound nucleus, organelles and a cytoskeleton
2 of 12
Nucleus
largest organelle in the cell, contains DNA, replication of DNA + first steps in decoding for protein production.
3 of 12
Rough endoplasmic reticulum
studded with ribosomes, segregates newly synthesized proteins and transports them to other areas, proteins can be chemically modified.
4 of 12
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
chemical modification of small molecules, site of glycogen hydrolysis + synthesis of lipids and steroids.
5 of 12
Ribosomes
float freely in prokaryotic cell cytoplasm, in eukaryotic cells are found free, attached to ER, or inside mitochondria + chloroplasts, site of protein synthesis.
6 of 12
Golgi apparatus
flattened membrenous sacs (cisternas), receives proteins + may further modify them, concentrates, packages + sorts proteins, synthesis of polysaccharides
7 of 12
Lysosomes
vesicles containing digestive enzymes, breakdown of food and foreign material, digestion of spent cellular components occurs, autophagy
8 of 12
Mitochondria
have own independent genome, energy stored in carbohydrates and fatty food converted into ATP by ATP synthase
9 of 12
Plastids
organelles found only in plants + some protists
10 of 12
Chloroplasts
found in some cells (plants and protists), site of photosynthesis
11 of 12
Vacuoles
storage, structure, reproduction, digestion
12 of 12
