Type of cell that lacks a defined nucleus and does not contain membrane- bound organelles
Nitrogenous base that bonds with adenine
Any of many cell "organs" or organized components
Three-base sequence of mRNA
Contain all of the genetic information for the regeneration of the cell and instructions for the function of the cell
6CO2+6H20+Light Energy-->C6H12O6+6O2
Alternate versions of a gene
Process in which cells engulf food particles through the cell membrane
Packages, processes, and ships organelles; transports proteins from the ER throughout the cell
Produces cell energy; found in most eukaryotic cells and are the site of cellular respiration

Nucleic acid found in both the nucleus and cytoplasm of the cell; occurs in 3 forms
Process that determines how reproductive cells divide in a sexually reproducing organism
Endoplasmic reticulum that lacks ribosomes and responsible for the detoxification and metabolism of multiple molecules
Reproduction that involves two cells that contribute genetic material to daughter cells, resulting in significantly greater variation
