|
Nucleus
|
animal/plant
1.which houses the cells genetic materials in the form of DNA |
|
|
chromatin
|
animal/plant
DNA coiled around proteins |
|
|
Nucleoplasm
|
animal/plant
photoplasm of nucleus |
|
|
Nucleolus
|
animal/plant
the parts that make up organelles called ribosomes |
|
|
Nuclear Membrane
|
animal/plant
The double membrane of the nucleus enclosing DNA and any other genetic material in a eukaryotic cell is called the nuclear membrane. |
|
|
Vacuole
|
plant
The vacuole is used only in plant cells. It is responsible for maintaining the shape and structure of the cell. The vacuole is a large vesicle which is also used to store nutrients, metabolites, and waste products. |
|
|
Lysosome
|
animal
membrane band sac containing digestive enzymes that can breakdown |
|
|
Ribosome
|
animal/plant
cluster of proteins and nucleic acids that can construct protein in a cell. |
|
|
Mitochondria
|
animal
sites where cellular respiration occurs |
|
|
Endoplasmic Reticulum
|
animal/plant
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is repsonible for the production of the protein and lipid components of most of the cell's organelles. ... |
|
|
Golgi Apparatus
|
ANIMAL/PLANTAE
The Golgi apparatus is a cell structure mainly devoted to processing the proteins synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) |
|
|
Cytoplasm
|
BOTH
Cytoplasm is the watery environment inside the cell. This extracellular fluid consists of all of a cell's internal contents, and is mostly made of water. |
|
|
Cell Wall
|
plant
cell wall is a fairly rigid layer surrounding a cell, located external to the cell membrane, which provides the cell with structural support, protection |
|
|
Cell Membrane aka plasma membrane
|
Plant/aNIMAL
This defines the boundaries of a cell and regulates the traffic of chemicals between the cell and its surroundings. |
|
|
Centriole
|
ANIMAL/PLANT
moving chrosomes during cell division |
|
|
Chloroplast
|
Plant
organelle found in some plant cells and certain unicellular organs where photosynthesis takes place |
|
|
cytoskeleton-
|
animal/plant
provides structure for the cell |
|
|
peroxisomes
|
animal plant
Peroxisomes are ubiquitous organelles in eukaryotes that participate in the metabolism of fatty acids and other metabolites. |
|
|
cell junctions
|
A cell junction is a structure within a tissue of a multicellular organism.
plant/animal Cell junctions are especially abundant in epithelial tissues. ... |
|
|
Extracellular- Matrix
|
animal
extracellular matrix (ECM) is a complex structural entity surrounding and supporting cells that are found within mammalian tissues. ... |
|
|
cilia
|
animal
cilium (plural cilia) is an organelle found in eukaryotic cells. Cilia are thin, tail-like projections extending approximately 5–10 micrometers outwards |
|
|
Flagella
|
animal/plant
long thin whip like structure that enables movement |
