lysosome
small dot but bigger than ribosome
breaks down bacteria & componenets of damaged cells, complex organic molecules(protein, nucleic acid)

nucleus
control cell activities
have chromosomes that has DNA to determine cell characteristics and metabolic function

ribosome
smallest dot, on surface of endoplasmic reticulum or cytoplasm
has protein and RNA
for protein synthesis

endoplasmic reticulum
continuous with nuclear membrane/near nucleus
a transport system for cell
provided wide surface for enzyme attachment and biochemical reactions

rough endoplasmic reticulum
transport protein synthesised by ribosome

smooth endoplasmic reticulum
transport glycerol and lipids
carries detoxification of drugs and metabolic by-products

plasma membrane
have proteins and phospholipids
seperates cell content from external environment
control movement of substances in and out of the cell
allow exchange of respiratory gases, nutrients, waste materials between cells and surroundings

Golgi apparatus
Processes, modifies and transport protein, carbohydrate, glycoprotein

centriole
look similar to mitochondria, but smaller
forms spindle fibres during cell division

mitochondria
generates energy through glucose oxidation process during cell respiration
release energy in the form of ATP molecules to be used by cells

cell wall
made of cellulose fibre
maintain shape of plant cell
provides mechanical support to plant cells
fully permeable

cytoplasm
have oraganic compounds(protein, lipid, carbohydrate) and inorganic compound(potassium ions)
act as medium for biochemical reactions

chloroplast
absorbs sunlight to become chemical energy
have chlorophyll in grana

vacuole
absorbs water and the cell becomes turgid
in unicellular organims, it contracts during osmoregulation, osmosis and excretion

centriole, lysosome, ribosome
not present in plant cell

cell wall, chloroplast, vacuole
not present in animal cell

sperm cell
a lot of mitrochondria
it requires a lot of energy to swim towards uterus and Fallopian tube to fertilise secondary oocyte

muscle cell (flight muscles cells in birds and insects)
a lot of mitrochondria
requires a lot of energy to contract and relax to enable movement and flight

plant meristem cell
a lot of mitochondria
requires a lot of energy to carry out active cell division process to produce new cells

palisade and spongy mesophyll cell
a lot of chloroplast
absorb more sunlight to carry out photosynthesis

goblet cell
a lot of rough endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus
produce mucus

pancreatic cell
a lot of rough endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus
increase synthesis and secretion of digestive enzyme (pancreatic amylase-hydrolyses starch to maltose/trypsin-hydrolyses polypeptides to shorter peptides/lipase-hydrolyses lipids into fatty acids and glycerol) into duodenum through pancreatic duct

liver
a lot of smooth endoplasmic reticulum
metabolises carbohydrates
detoxification of drugs and poisions

liver
a lot of mitochondria
metabolism of carbohydrates, amino acid synthesise plasma protein and enzyme
break down excess amino acid through deamination process to be excreted through urine
convert excess glucose to glycogen to be stored
detoxification of toxic substances
sharp objects
Category A
gloves, tissue papers
Category B
Animal carcasses, organs, tissues
Category C
blood
Category D
