Information and administrative center of the cell Regulates the activities of the cell Contains genetic materials (DNA) Nucleolus inside produces ribosomes |
Nucleus |
|
|
Ribosomes embedded in membrane Ribosomes produce proteins to be exported from cell Manufactures, processes, and transports chemical compounds for use inside and outside of the cell |
Golgi Body |
|
|
Enzymes assisting making of lipids and final processing of proteins Making steroids, regulates calcium levels, breaks down toxins Synthesizing of proteins, such as enzymes |
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum |
|
|
The site of CELLULAR RESPIRATION in plants and animals Main power generators, converting oxygen and nutrients into energy Production of ATP from organic compounds |
Mitochondria |
|
|
Distribution and shipping department for the cells Package and secrete proteins into vesicles to leave cells (exocytosis) Modifies proteins that export from cell from Rough ER |
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum |

|
DIGESTION or break down cellular waste products Contains enzymes that breakdown carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids |
Lysosome |
|
|
Regulates the passage of molecules in and out of the cells Allows molecules to pass through cell based on size |

|
|
Short, heair-like projections that serve a sensory and locomotive purpose. |
Cilia |
|
|
Long projections that move in whip-like motion Locomotion of individual organisms |

|
|
Plant cells have a rigid cellulose wall surrounding the cell membrane Provides assitional support and protection to the PLANT cells only |
Cell Wall |
|
|
Location of photosnthesis Only in PLANT cells |
Chloroplast |
|
|
Stores enzymes, waste, and plays an important structural role for the plant Found in animal cells, but are much smaller in size |

|
|
Watery substance that fills the inside of a cell |
Cytoplasm |
|
|
Organizes microtubules during mitosis Only in ANIMAL cells |
