Cell membrane

the outer covering of the cell consisting of lipid bi layer with proteins embedded in it

Nucleus

the control center of the cell

Cytoplasm

it is the jelly like substance in a cell that contains the cytosol, organelles, and inclusions, but not including the nucleus

Vacuole

a membrane bound vesicle found in the cytoplasm of a cell whose function includes intracellular secretion, excretion, storage, digestion

Lysosome

organelles containing a large range of digestive enzymes used primarily for digestion and removal of excess or worn out organelles, food particles, and engulfed viruses or bacteria

Ribosome

a molecule consisting of two subunits that fit together and work as one to build proteins according to the genetic sequence held with in the messenger (RNA)

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

has ribosomes attached to its surface it is therefore involved in protein synthesis ans secretion

Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum

Does not have ribosomes on its surface it is involves in intracellular transports, such as the transport of the products of the RER to other cell parts like the Golgi apparatus

Golgi Apparatus

involved in carbohydrates to proteins, packaging of molecules like proteins into vesicles for secretion transport of lipids around the cell and the creation of lysosomes

Chloroplast

green, site for photosynthesis

mitochondria

power house of the cell since they act as the site for the production of high energy compounds (e. g. ATP) witch are vital energy source for several cellular prosses

cell wall

a membrane of the cell that forms external to the cell membrane whose main role is to give cells rigidity, strength and protection against mechanical stress. it is found in cells of plants,bacteria, archaea, fungi, and algae.animals and most protists so not have cell walls.
