Animal and Plant Cells

• Cell membrane

• A protective lipid bilayer surrounding each cell

• Regulates what leaves and enters the cell

Centriole

Bundles of microtubules that organizes the movement of chromosomes during cell division

Cytoplasm

Jelly like liquid that fills the cell

Cytoskeleton

Aids cell movement and gives the cell its shape

Endoplasmic Reticulum

• A network of sacs that are responsible for manufacturing, transporting and processing chemical compounds used by the cell

• Contains ribosomes and transport proteins made by ribosomes

Golgi Apparatus

• A stack of membranes that collect and modify chemical compounds

Lysosomes

• Small vesicles that contain enzymes and chemicals that help break down materials that enter the cell and non functioning organelles

• Made by the golgi apparatus

Mitochondria

• The powerhouse of the cell 💀

• Converts nutrients into energy and have their own DNA

Nuclear Membrane

• Double layered membrane that protects the nucleus

• Has pores that allow molecules to move in and out of the cell

Nucleolus

• Found inside the nucleus

• Contains RNA and synthesizes ribosomes

Nucleus

Contains DNA and regulates gene expression

Ribosome

• Creates protein

• Found in the endoplasmic reticulum

Vacuole

• Vesicle that stores water and proteins

• Removes waste products from the cell

Vesicle

• Saclike structures created by the golgi apparatus

• Transport and stores nutrients and proteins out of the cell membrane

• Vesicles are vacuoles and lysosomes

Cell Wall

• Outermost layer that surrounds the cell 

• Protects and supports the cell - feels woody, rigid, or elastic

Chloroplast

Converts energy from the sun into chemical energy through photosynthesis

Plastids

• Carries out photosynthesis 

• Food storage

• Has its own DNA
