Plasma Membrane |
Surrounds & keeps organelles within the cell Regulates the entrance of molecules into & out of the cell Forms tissues by joining to other cells Forms vacuoles & vesicles |
|
|
Nuclear Envelope |
Seperates nuclear material from cytoplasm Controls entrance/exit of materials into/out of nucleus |
|
|
Nucleus |
Surrounded by a double membrane
Contains DNA
Site of transcription in protein synthesis & mRNA production |
|
|
Nucleolus |
Productive of ribosomal RNA (rRNA)
rRNA forms ribosomal subunits |
|
|
Chromosomes |
DNA replication for cell division transcription for protein synthesis |
Changes to DNA can cause mutation |
|
Endoplasmic Reticulum |
Storage/transport of molecules Forms vesicles |
|
|
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum |
Rough bc Ribosomes are attached to outer surface Site of protein synthesis Stores & transports proteins to golgi body |
|
|
Smooth ER |
Produces lipids Detoxifies blood poisons |
|
|
Ribosomes |
Makes proteins Site of Translation |
|
|
Golgi Body |
Receives proteins from ER Modifies molecules Produces vesicles filled with modified molecules for exocytosis Produces lysosomes - used |
|
|
Lysosomes |
Carries out hydrolysis with hydrolytic enzymes Digest non-useful organelles (Intracellular Digestion) Fuses with food vacuoles and digest food |
Digestive System |
|
Vesicles |
Transports molecules to Golgi bodies & plasma membrane for exocytosis/excretion Stores molecules until needed Brings molecules into cell (endocytosis) Packages viruses |
|
|
Vacuoles |
Transports molecules within the cell Stores wastes, water, pigments |
|
|
Cell Wall |
Composed of cellulose to give structural support for plants |
|
|
