control center of the cell & direct cell’s activities |
|
|
Cell membrane |
keeps organelles inside cell, protective layer, regulates what comes in and out of the cell (selectively permeable) |
|
|
Cell wall |
found in plant cells, rigidity gives plants their shape, regulates movement of water and nutrients in and out of plant cells |
|
|
Ribosome |
makes protein for the cell |
|
|
Smooth er |

|
|
Lyosome |
found in animal cells, contains enzymes that break down food, waste, bacteria and viruses, also plays a role in the immune system |
|
|
Vacuoles |
sacs that contain nutrients, water and proteins; keeps cell membrane pressed up against cell wall (gives cell turgidity) |
|
|
Golgi apparatus |
receives fat and protein molecules from Smooth/Rough ER, chemically packages them into vesicles and transports it to cell membrane where it will be released to the extra-cellular fluid |
|
|
