|
Peroxisomes Structure and function |
Membranous sacs House enzymes that catalyse diverse reactions including breakdown of hydrogen peroxide and fatty acid‘s and alcohol detoxification |
|
Microfilaments and microtubules structure and function |
Thin rods and tubules Support the cytoplasm and help new substances and organelles within the cytoplasm |
|
Centrosome structure and function |
Non-membrane is structure composed of two rod like centrioles Helps distribute chromosomes to new cells during cell division |
|
Cilia and flagella Structure and function |
Motile projections attached beneath the cell membrane Cilia propel fluid over cellular surfaces and the flagella enables the sperm cell to move |
|
Vesicles structure and function |
Membranous sacs Contain and transports various substances |
|
Nuclear envelope Structure and function |
Double membrane that separates the nuclear contents from the cytoplasm Maintain the integrity of nucleus and controls passage of materials between nucleus and cytoplasm |
