CELIA & FLAGELLA

Cilia and flagella move liquid past the surface of the cell.

VESICLES

Vesicles are cellular organelles that are composed of a lipid bilayer. You can think of vesicles as cellular envelopes that are used to transport materials from one place to another. Vesicles also function in metabolism and enzyme storage as well.

NUCLEAR ENVELOPE

nuclear envelope is the membrane that encloses the nucleus.

NUCLEOLUS

Its main function is to rewrite ribosomal RNA

CHROMATIN

function of chromatin is to efficiently package DNA into a small volume to fit into the nucleus of a cell and protect the DNA structure and sequence.

MICROTUBULES

move vesicles, granules, organelles like mitochondria, and chromosomes via special attachment proteins.

MICROFILAMENTS

Provide support for cell

Peroxisomes

breakdown of very long chain fatty acids through beta-oxidation.

LYSOSOMES

Organelle that contains digestive enzymes

MITOCHONDRIA

The powerhouse

GOLGI APPARATUS

Organelle that prepares cellular products for secretion.

RIBOSOME

Organelle composed of RNA & protein that is a structural support for protein synthesis.

endoplasmic reticulum

organelle composed of a system of connected membranous tubules and vesicles along which protein is synthesized

smooth E.R

make cellular products like hormones and lipids

Rough E R

responsible for the assembly of many proteins
