Cell membrane
(animals and plants)
surrounds and wraps around the cell to secure its contents, gives the cell shape, and controls what moves in and out of the cell
Cytoplasm
(animals and plants)
clear jellylike fluid that is found throughout the cell(mostly water but also has other chemicals) parts float in it
Nucleus
(animals and plants)
cell part that controls most of cell's activities; found near the center of the cell
Nuclear Membrane
(animals and plants)
structure that surrounds the nucleus and seperates it from the rest of the cell. Allows materials to move in and out of nucleus
Nucleolus
(animal and plant)
found in the nucleus and helps make ribosomes
Mitochondria
(animal and plant)
known as the "powerrhouse" of the cell because it produces energy; found in the cytoplasm
Ribosomes
(animals and plants)
site inside of cell where protiens are produces; can be free floating in cytoplam or attached to endoplasmic reticulum (ER)
Smooth endoplasmic Reticulum
(animals and plants)
series of folded membranes extending from nucleus to cell membrane. Matierials (lipids) processed and moved around inside of the cell. Lacks ribosomes.
Rough endoplasmic reticulum
(animals and plants)
series of folded membranes extending from nucleus to cell membrane. Matierials (protiens) processed and moved around inside of the cell. Ribosomes are attached to it.
Golgi body
(animals and plants)
stacked flattened membranes that sort protiens and other substances and package and ship them out (vesicles)
Vacuoles
(animal only)
a liquid filled space that stores food, water, minerals, and even wastes.
Lysosomes
(animal only)
small sacs that contain digestive enzymes to break down harmful chemicals, wastes, and worn out cell parts.
Cytoskeleton
(animal only)
framework made up of thin hollow tubes of protien and fibers that help the cell maintain or change its shape
Vacuoles
(plants only)
a liquid filled space that stores food, water, minerals, and wastes.It takes up a large portion of the cell. Fluid inside helps support the plant.
Chloroplasts
(plants only)
contain green pigment, chlorophyll, that traps energy from the sun and uses it to make food.
Cell Wall
(plants only)
thick tough rigid outercovering outside the cell membrane. It protects and supports the cell. Composed of cellilose fibers.
