Here is the matching of terms from Column A to their corresponding descriptions in Column B:
- cell membrane: k. controls what goes into and out of all cells
- nucleus: b. found in eukaryotic cells and holds the cell's DNA
- chromosomes/genes: l. instructions for the cell's proteins that determine the organism's characteristics
- cytoplasm: n. gel-like substance inside the cell
- centrioles: f. involved in cell division, make spindle fibers
- mitochondria: d. site of aerobic cellular respiration in eukaryotes
- ribosomes: i. cellular structure, found in ALL cells where proteins are made/built
- lysosomes: e. contains hydrolytic enzymes as the clean-up crew for the cell (housekeeping)
- Golgi apparatus: o. puts final touches on proteins and packages them
- smooth endoplasmic reticulum: h. site of lipid and steroid synthesis
- rough endoplasmic reticulum: g. has ribosomes, site of most protein synthesis and transportation in cell
- cytoskeleton: a. gives internal support/structure to the cell
- flagella: j. long, whip-like projection from cell membrane
- cilia: c. short, hairlike projections on cell membrane
- cell wall: m. outer surrounding structure found in many (not all) cells that is rigid and protective
This matches the terms with their functions or characteristics related to cell structure.
