organelles
|
These tiny cell sturctures, called organelles, carry out specific functions within the cell
|
|
|
cell wall
|
In a plant cell, a stiff wall surrounds the membrane, giving the cell a rigid, boxlike shape
|
|
|
cell membrane
|
All cells have cell membrane. The cell membrane controls what substances come into and out of a cell
|
|
|
nuclear envelope
|
The neclear enevelope protects the nucleus
|
|
|
chromatin
|
The chromatin contain genetic material the instuctions for directing the cell's functions.
|
|
|
nucleolus
|
The nucleaus directs all of the cell's activities, including reproductions.
|
|
|
mitochondria
|
Most of the cell's energy is produced within these rod-shaped organelles.
|
|
|
endoplasmic reticulum
|
This network of passageways carries materials from one part of the cell to another
|
|
|
ribosomes
|
These small structures function as factories to produce proteins. Ribosomes may be attached to the endoplasmic retuculum, or they may float in the cytoplasm.
|
|
|
Golgi body
|
The googi bodies receive materials from the endoplasmic reticulum and send them to other parts of the cell. They also release materials outside the cell.
|
|
|
chloroplast
|
These organelles capture energy from sunlight and use it to produce food for the cell
|
|
|
vacuole
|
