Mitrochondria
|
Site of ATP synthesis; powerhouse of the cell.
|
|
Robosomes
|
The sites of protein synthesis
|
|
Rough Endoplasmic reticulum
|
Sugar groups are attached to proteins within the cistermae; proteins are bound in vesicles for transport to the Golgi aparatus and other sites; external face synthesizes phospholipids and cholesterol.
|
|
Smooth Endoplasmic reticulum
|
Site of lipid and steroid synthesis, lipid metabolism and drug detoxification.
|
|
Golgi apparatus
|
Packages, modifies, and segregates proteins for secretion from the sell, inclusion in lysosomes, and incorporation into the plasma membrane.
|
|
Lysosomes
|
Sites of intracellular digestion
|
|
Peroxisomes
|
The exzymes detoxify a number of toxic substances; the most important enzyme, catalase breaks down hydrogen peroxide.
|
|
Microtubles
|
Support the cell and give the shape; involved in intracellular and cellular movements; form centrioles
|
|
Microfilaments
|
Involved in muscle contraction and other types of intracillular movement; help form the cell's cytoskeleton.
|
|
intermediate felaments
|
the stable cytoskeletal elements; resist mechanical forces acting on the cell.
|
|
Centrioles
|
Organize a ocrotubule network during mitosis to form the spindle and asters; form the bases of cilia flagella.
|
|
Cilia
|
Move in unison, creating a unidirectional current that propels substances across cell surfaces.
|
|
Flagella
|
Propels the cell.
