|
Mitochondria |
Where energy is released from glucose to fuel cell activities |
|
|
Nucleus |
Controls all cell activities |
|
|
Ribosomes |
Help to produce proteins, which make up much of a cell's structure and are required for activities necessary for the cell's survival |
|
|
Golgi Bodies |
Sorts and packages proteins and other molecules for transport out of cell |
|
|
Vacuoles |
Contain water and other materials and are used to store or transport small molecules ;plant cells tend to have one large vacuole while animal cells may have several smaller vaculoes |
|
|
Chloroplasts |
Found only in plant cells; trap energy from the sun to make glucose, which is broken down in the mitochondria to power cell activities(Animals receive glucose from food they consume) |
|
|
Endoplasmic Reticulum |
A network of membrane covered channels that transports materials made in the cell;is connected to the nucleus |
|
|
Lyosome |
Lysosomes are membrane-enclosed organelles that contain an array of enzymes capable of breaking down all types of biological polymers—proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids. Lysosomes function as the digestive system of the cell, serving both to degrade material taken up from outside the cell and to digest obsolete components of the cell itself.
