Document Summary

Prokaryotes- simplest organisms, do not contain membrane- bound organelles. Nucleoid- the area of a prokaryotic cell, usually near the center, that contains the genome in the form of dna compacted with protein. Nuclear envelope- double-membrane structure that surrounds the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell. Cytoplasm- semifluid matrix that fills the interior of the cell; contains sugars, amino acids, and proteins the cell uses. Endomembrane system- a system of connected membranous compartments found in eukaryotic cells. Central vacuole- stores proteins, pigments and waste materials in plants. Vesicles- smaller sacs that store and transport a variety of materials. Cytoskeleton- maintains the shape of a eukaryotic cell. Nucleus- largest and most easily seen organelle in a eukaryotic cell. Nucleolus- region where intensive synthesis of ribosomal rna is taking place. Nuclear envelope- surface of nucleus bounded by two phospholipid bilayer membranes. Chromatin- complex of dna and proteins of which eukaryotic chromosomes are composed of.
