Cell Membrane

This structural organelle consists of a phospholipid bilayer and proteins

Cell Membrane

Regulates the passage of materials in and out of the cell

Cell Membrane

Cell Membrane

Found in all cells

Found in plants, fungi, and bacteria

Cell wall

Rigid barrier found outside of the cell membrane

Cell wall

Cell wall

Only found in plant cells

The area holds the various cell organelles

Cytoplasm

Gel like substance that fills the empty space in cells

Cytoplasm

Cytoplasm

Found in all cells

Sometimes called the “powerhouse” of the cell

Mitochondria

Site of cellular respiration

Mitochondria

Releases energy stored in glucose forming ATP

Mitochondria

These organelles are very numerous in cells that have high energy demeanor (e.g. liver and muscle cells)

Mitochondria

Mitochondria

Found in all eukaryotic cells (plant and animal)

Chloroplast

Found only in plant cells

Contains green pigment; chlorophyll

Chloroplast

Creates glucose in plants using energy from the sun

Chloroplast

Ribosomes

Found in all cells

Site of protein synthesis

Ribosomes

Translates the messages of MRNA into chains of Amino acids

Ribosomes

Stores DNA

Nucleus

This site is where DNA is copied to make MRNA (transcription)

Nucleus

Controls the cells activities

Nucleus

Nucleus

Found only in eukaryotic cells (plant and animal)

Vacuole

Found only in plant cells

May store good, waster, or metabolic waste

Large Vacuole

Centrioles

Found only in animal cells

Short hair-like structures for movement

Cilia

Cilia

Found only in Eukaryotic cells (plant and animal)

Long whip-like structures used for movement

Flagella

Example can be seen in sperm cells

Flagella

Flagella

Found in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells
