|
Organelle
|
Tiny structure that has a particular function
|
|
|
Cell Membrane
|
Controls what substances enter plus leave the cell
Barrier between cell and it’s environment |
|
|
Cytoplasm
|
Between the Cell Membrane and Nucleus
The gel like fluid Suspends the organelles Dissolves important chemicals needed for life. |
|
|
endoplasmic reticulum
|
Rough E.R. rE.R. : transports proteins from Ribosomes to the Golgi Body
R.E.R. is covered in ribosomes Smooth E.R. .SE.R. : produces and transports facts throughout the Cell |
|
|
Ribosome
|
In the Cytoplasm or found on endoplasmic reticulum
Make proteins Read RNA instructions and use them to make proteins. |
|
|
Chloroplast
|
Site of photosynthesis which is making food from sunlight energies and Co2. Oxygen is a waste product.
Chloroplasts and Mitochondria are the opposite |
|
|
Lysosome
|
Contains digestive enzymes which break down odd worn out organelles, and big food particles
|
|
|
Cell wall
|
Rigid layer of non-living material surrounding the cell.
Found in plant cells and in bacteria Supports plus produces |
|
|
Nucleus
|
Headquarters= Directs cell activities including reproduction |
|
|
Mitochondria
|
Converts energy in food into energy that the cell can use
Requires oxygen this is why you breathe Double Membrane |
|
|
Golgi Body
|
receives proteins from the E.R.
Sorts them Sends them to other parts of the Cell Like Outside of the cell |
|
|
Vacuole
|
Stores food, waste and water
Animal Cells have many small ones, or none at all |
|
|
Nuclear Envelope
|
Protect chromatin
Materials pass in and out through the pores |
|
|
Chromatin
|
(DNA) plus histone proteins
Contains genetic material (DNA) Contains instructions for running the cell Instruction=Genes |
|
|
Nucleolus
|
Produces Ribosomes
|
