Cell Structure

Front 1

Cell Wall

Back 1

~Surrounds only PLANT CELLS
~Provides cell with suport and protection
~Made of fibers of a compound called cellulcos

Front 2

Cell Membrane

Back 2

~Surrounds both plant and animal cells
~Made up of lipids and proteins
~separates cell from surroundings
~controls what eneters and leaves the cell (water, nutrients, waste)

Front 3

Nucleus

Back 3

~Guides most of the cell's activities
~Contains DNA that provides cell with information to make protiens.
~Surrounded by the nuclear membrane, which separates the nucleus from the rest of the cell.

Front 4

Cytoplasm

Back 4

~Jelly-like substance that contains a supporting network of protiens, fibers, and water
~Contians organelles- the nucleus and other small parts

Front 5

Mitochondria

Back 5

~Powerhouse of the cell
~Provides energy for the cell

Front 6

Ribosomes

Back 6

~Protien Factories of the cell
~Assemble protiens, which the cell uses for growth, repair, and control

Front 7

Endoplasmic Reticulum

Back 7

~Network of membranes folded into tubes and canals the run throughout the cytoplasm
Transports materials througout the cell

Front 8

Smooth ER

Back 8

Endoplasmic Reticulum with no ribosomes attached
~Involved in lipid production

Front 9

Rough ER

Back 9

Endoplasmic Reticulum with ribosomes attached to it

Front 10

Golgi Bodies

Back 10

~Center of manufacturing and shipping within the cell
~materials are altered or stored here before they are sent to other parts of the cell

Front 11

Lysosomes

Back 11

~Contains powerful digestive chemical for breaking down large food molecules.
~Break down waste products and old cell parts.

Front 12

Vacuoles

Back 12

~fluid-filled sacs that float in cytoplasm
~Store water and food materials
~Stores and helps remove waste

Front 13

Chloroplasts

Back 13

~green oval-shaped organelles
~Contain green compound called chlorophyll- traps energy from the sunto make glucose(energy for other processes)
~Only found in plant cells

Front 14

DNA

Back 14

~Stands for Deoxynucleic Acid

Front 15

Organelles

Back 15

~Basically the small organs that make up cells
