Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
|
This network of passageways carries materials from part of the cell to another. Ribosomes are not attached.
|
|
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
|
This network of passageways carries materials from part of the cell to another. Ribosomes are attached.
|
|
Plasmodesmata
|
Cell-wall channels that allow connections between plant cells.
|
|
Golgi Body
|
This receives materials through the endoplasmic reticulum and sends them to other parts of the cell.
|
|
Ribosomes
|
These structures make proteins. They can be attached to the outer surfaces of the endoplasmic reticulum, or they may float free in the cytoplasm.
|
|
Chloroplast
|
These organelles capture energy from sunlight and use it to produce food for the cell.
|
|
Nucleus
|
All plant cells contain one of these. It directs all of the cell’s activities, like reproduction.
|
|
Cell Wall
|
This is a stiff wall surrounding the cell membrane, giving the cell a boxlike shape. This is made of cellulose.
|
|
Cell Membrane
|
This area protects the cell and regulates what substances enter and leave the it.
|
|
Cytoplasm
|
This the area between the cell membrane and the nucleus. It contains a gel-like fluid in which many different organelles are found.
|
|
Centrosome
|
A small region near the nucleus in the cell cytoplasm, containing the centrioles.
|
|
Mitochondria
|
Most of the cell’s energy is produced within these rod-shaped organelles.
|
|
Vacuole
|
Most mature plant cells have one of these. This sac within the cytoplasm stores water, food, waste products, and other materials.
|
|
Microtubules
|
A hollow cylindrical tube used for the transport of materials inside cells and keeping the cell’s shape.
|
|
Peroxisome
|
A cell organelle containing enzymes, such as catalase and oxidase, that catalyze the production and breakdown of hydrogen peroxide.
