Cell Membrane
|
* It regulates what enters and leaves the cell, it provides protection and support
* It asks like skin * It anchors in the cytoskeleton * It acts as a selective barrier to let things in and out |
|
Cell Wall
|
*It provides support for the cell membrane and the rest of the cell
* Its mostly found in plant cells * Cell wall gives the cell a definite shape * The cell wall is key in structure * Made up of cellulose and proteins |
|
Cytoskeleton
|
* It is a whole bunch of protein tubes, microfilaments
* Centriole helps divide the cytoskeleton when the cell divides |
|
Nucleus
|
* Controls what does on in the cell
* Nuclear pores exchange proteins through out the cells * Chromotin around the nucleus * Nuclear envelope is the wall around the cell, which is made of lipids |
|
Ribosome
|
* to put together amine acids to create protein
* Small particles that are made of RNA and protein |
|
Endoplasmic Reticulum
|
*Creates new cell membrane and transport proteins
* Made of a new network of cisternae held together by the cytoskeleton * City Bus system.. |
|
Golgi Apparatus
|
*To attach carbohydrates and lipids to proteins and then proteins are sent to final destination in the cell
*Made up of phospholipids by layers. * Like a mailroom, gets sent to house (final destination) |
|
Vacuole
|
*Storage area for the materials in the cell
* Carbs, salt, water and proteins are all stored in vacuole * The outer layer is the phospholipids by layer |
|
Plastid (chloroplasts)
|
* They are made of photosynthetic membranes
* Use energy from the sunlight to make energy rich food molecules in a process called photosynthesis *solar panel |
|
Lysosome
|
Break down lipids and carbs and proteins from food into particles that can be used in the rest of the cells, also break down organelles that aren’t helpful anymore and they remove debris that might clutter the cell.
* They transport proteins, hydorolsis * Whole outer layer is a phospholipids by layer, enzymes functions as catalyst * dump truck→ take away all the waste |
|
Mitochondria
|
uses energy from good to make high-energy compounds that the can use
* releases energy from stored food molecules * phospholipids by layer |
