  1. molecule
    the simplest structural unit of an element or compound
    Organelles include mitochondria, which are responsible for the energy transactions necessary for cell survival; lysosomes, which digest unwanted materials within the cell; and the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus, which play important roles in the internal organization of the cell by synthesizing selected molecules and then processing, sorting, and directing them to their proper locations.
  2. cell
    the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms
    A cell is enclosed by a plasma membrane, which forms a selective barrier that allows nutrients to enter and waste products to leave.
  3. nutrient
    any substance that can be metabolized to give energy
    A cell is enclosed by a plasma membrane, which forms a selective barrier that allows nutrients to enter and waste products to leave.
  4. selective
    characterized by very careful or fastidious choice
    A cell is enclosed by a plasma membrane, which forms a selective barrier that allows nutrients to enter and waste products to leave.
  5. contain
    hold or have within
    One major organelle, the nucleus, contains the genetic information necessary for cell growth and reproduction.
  6. processing
    preparing or putting through a prescribed procedure
    Organelles include mitochondria, which are responsible for the energy transactions necessary for cell survival; lysosomes, which digest unwanted materials within the cell; and the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus, which play important roles in the internal organization of the cell by synthesizing selected molecules and then processing, sorting, and directing them to their proper locations.
  7. framework
    the underlying structure
    The cytosol contains an organized framework of fibrous molecules that constitute the cytoskeleton, which gives a cell its shape, enables organelles to move within the cell, and provides a mechanism by which the cell itself can move.
  8. digest
    convert food into absorbable substances
    Organelles include mitochondria, which are responsible for the energy transactions necessary for cell survival; lysosomes, which digest unwanted materials within the cell; and the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus, which play important roles in the internal organization of the cell by synthesizing selected molecules and then processing, sorting, and directing them to their proper locations.
  9. surround
    extend on all sides of simultaneously; encircle
    The interior of the cell is organized into many specialized compartments, or organelles, each surrounded by a separate membrane.
  10. survival
    the state of remaining alive
    Organelles include mitochondria, which are responsible for the energy transactions necessary for cell survival; lysosomes, which digest unwanted materials within the cell; and the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus, which play important roles in the internal organization of the cell by synthesizing selected molecules and then processing, sorting, and directing them to their proper locations.
  11. mechanism
    device consisting of a piece of machinery
    The cytosol contains an organized framework of fibrous molecules that constitute the cytoskeleton, which gives a cell its shape, enables organelles to move within the cell, and provides a mechanism by which the cell itself can move.
