-Located between the nucleus and cell membrane, its made up of water, gas, and waste. -Thick like substance -Flows within cell and holds organelles |
Cytoplasm |
|
-Fastens to the cell membrane and nuclear membrane -Has no ribosomes attached -topIs a system of canals for materials to pass through the cylasm -Provides a surface for ribosomes to attach to -made up of proteins |
Endoplasmic reticulum (smooth) |
|
-Fastens to the cell membrane and nuclear membrane -Made up of proteins -Has ribosomes attached
|
Endoplasmic reticulum (rough) |
|
Attached to the endoplasmic reticulum -Made up of acid -Granular in appearance -Contains enzymes that control protein -Contains large amounts or RNA |
Ribosome |
|
Centre of respiration in the cell -Proteins -Rod shape, each layer contains protein + fat |
Mitochondria |
|
Stomach of the cell -Simple, single membrane -Known as the "suicide sac" -When a cell takes in a large molecule the lysosome breaks the molecule down |
Lysosome |
|
Near the endoplasmic reticulum -Made of a series of flattened stacked pouches called cisternae -looks like a stack of flattened sacs -Acts as a protein packaging factory, wraps up large numbers of protein and molecules into a single bundle |
Golgi apparatus |
|
Only in plants -Contains chlorophyll (green pigment) -Photosynthesis occurs here (converts sun's energy into carbohydra |
Chloroplast |
|
Only in plants -Made of cellulose and protein -Jelly like, made of layers -Protects and supports the cell |
Cellwall |
|
Located at the center of the cell -Made up of DNA -Round jelly -Control centre for all cell activities -takes part in and controls cell division |
Nucleus |
|
Located on the nucleus -Thin double membrane -Allows certain substances to pass from the nucleus to the cytoplasm |
Nuclear membrane |
|
Located on the nucleus -Thick fluid, rich in protein -Holds nucleolus in place |
Nucleoplasm |
|
Granular material of (DNA and protein) -Controls the activities of the cell |
Chromosome |
|
Outer most layer of the animal cell, inside the cell wall of a plant cell -Made of pores, two layers (not solid) -Allows certain substances into and or out of the cell |
Cell membrane |
|
Located within the nucleus -Takes part in protein synthesis -Produces ribosomes |
Nucleolus |
|
Located in plants -Made up of fluid mainly water, very large -Controls the movement of molecules from the vacuole into the cell |
Vacuole |
