Cytoskeleton
Location:
Cytoplasm
Function:
Maintains cell shape, facilitates cell movement and movement of materials within a cell.
Cytosol
Location:
Cytoplasm.
Function:
Protein-rich fluid in which organelles and cytoskeleton are immersed.
Golgi Complex
Location:
Cytoplasm.
Function:
Processing,sorting, packaging,transporting of proteins and other cell products.
Lysosomes (animal cells only)
Location:
Cytoplasm.
Function:
Digestion of imported materials and cell's own used materials. Sometimes called "suicide sacks". Membrane-enclosed circular structure. Responsible for Hydrolysis. Autophagy "self-eating".
Mitochondria
Location:
Cytoplasm.
Function:
Transform energy from food. Has a double membrane. Site of ATP synthesis. Capable of self-replicating. Has DNA and ribosomes. Enzymes and other material needed are located in Matrix solution. Could have evolved through symbiosis
Nucleolus
Location:
Nucleus.
Function:
Synthesis of ribosomal RNA. Formation of ribosomes.
Nucleus
Location:
Inside nuclear envelope.
Function:
Site of most of the cell's DNA.
Ribosomes
Location:
Rough ER, free-standing in Cytoplasm. Sites of protein synthesis. Not an organelle. Has no membrane. Made of RNA. "workbench".
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
Location:
Cytoplasm.
Function:
Protein processing. Responsible for intracellular transport. Connected to the cell membrane. Proteins made are exported. Composed of interconnected flattened tubes. "Assembly Line"
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
Location:
Cytoplasm.
Function:
Lipid synthesis, storage; detoxification of harmful substances.
