|
Vacuoles |
Single phospholipid bilayer membrane bound storage sacs produced by ER/ Golgi. |
|
|
Central Vacuole |
Plant cell only, large, takes up most of the cell volume, provides turgor pressure. |
|
|
Peroxisomes |
Single phospholipid bilayer membrane bound, contains enzymes which allow for modification of substances which results in the production of hydrogen peroxide, can divide and reproduce without endomembrane system, usually found near mitochondrion. |
|
|
Mitochondrion |
Double phospholipid bilayer membrane, converts energy, site of cellular respiration. |
|
|
Chloroplast |
Plant and some protist cells only, double phospholipid bilayer membrane, site of photosynthesis. |
|
|
Chromatin |
Composed of DNA and histones, Code for proteins. |
|
|
Golgi Apparatus |
Series of flattened membrane-bound tubules, Receive (from ER), store, package, modify, and ship (secrete) macromolecules. |
|
|
Lysosomes |
Animal cells only, single phospholipid bilayer membrane bound, produced by ER/ Golgi, contains hydrolytic enzymes and a lower pH. |
|
|
Nucleus |
Control center, Home of Chromatin, Double phospholipid bilayer membrane. |
|
|
Ribosomes |
Composed of rRNA, 2 part bead like structure, Site of protein sythesis. |
|
|
Smooth ER |
Network of membrane bound tubules, No ribosomes, synthesis and transport of lipids, metabolism of carbs, storage of Ca++, Detoxification of toxic chemicals. |
|
|
Rough ER |
Network of membrane bound tubules, has ribosomes, make more membrane, transport proteins. |
