Cell Functions

Cytoplasm

Jelly like substance, most chemical reactions take place here

Mitocondria

Converts chemical energy stored in food into usable compounds like ATP

Nucleus

Controls cells activities

Vacuole

stores materials like water, salt, proteins, and carbohydrates

Golgi apperatus

modifies sorts and packages proteins from endoplasmic reticulum

cilia

hair like projections from endoplasmic reticulum

vesicle

store and move materials between cell organelles and cells surface

lysosome

filled with enzymes that breakdown material, viruses, junk

cell wall

made up of micofilaments and mictotubles to provide shape and organization to the cell

lipid bilayer

two layers of phospholipids that are flexible and provide barrier between cell and surroundings

centrioles

cell division

rough er

contians ribosomes because involved in protein synthesis

nuclear envelope

allows material to move in and out of nucleus

nucleolus

makes ribosomes

flagella

whip like tail form movement of cell or objects surrounding cell

smooth er

contains enzymes that preform detoxification and lipid synthesis

DNA

carries genetic info with coded instructions

Selectively Permeable

allows substances to pass through the membrane while others can’t

chloroplast

captures solar energy into food that contains chemical energy

cell membrane

regulates what enters and leaves the cell as well as providing protection support

cyto-skeleton

provide plant and prokaryotic cell with shape, support and protection
