1
New cards

Nucleus

It stores and protects the cell's genetic blueprint (DNA). It coordinates critical cellular processes such as gene expression, metabolism, protein synthesis, and cell division.

2
New cards

Nucleolus

A distinct, dense structure located inside the nucleus of a human cell that is responsible for producing and assembling ribosomes.

3
New cards

Ribosome

A tiny, non-membrane-bound cellular structure made of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and proteins that builds proteins by translating genetic codes

4
New cards

Rough ER

A continuous, membrane-bound cellular organelle studded with ribosomes that synthesizes and processes proteins for the cell membrane or export

5
New cards

Smooth ER

A network of membrane-bound tubules inside cells that lacks ribosomes and is responsible for lipid synthesis, carbohydrate metabolism, and calcium storage.

6
New cards

Golgi

It receives newly synthesized proteins and lipids from the endoplasmic reticulum, chemically modifies them (such as adding carbohydrate groups), and packages them into membrane-bound vesicles.

7
New cards

Vessicle

A small, membrane-bound sac that stores or transports fluid, proteins, and other molecules within a cell.

8
New cards

Lysosome

A membrane-bound cell organelle filled with digestive enzymes that break down waste, old cell parts, and foreign invaders.

9
New cards

Mitochondria

A specialized, double-membrane structure found within human cells that functions as the primary energy producer of the body.

10
New cards

Centriole

A barrel-shaped cellular organelle composed of microtubule triplets that plays a critical role in organizing the cell's cytoskeleton and facilitating cell division.

11
New cards

Cilia

A tiny, hair-like microscopic structures that project from the surface of certain cells.

12
New cards

Flagella

A whip-like, tail-scaled microscopic structure that extends from the surface of a cell and is used primarily for cell motility (movement).

13
New cards

Microvilli

Microscopic, finger-like projections that extend from the surface of certain epithelial cells in the human body.
