Cell Organelles

Cell membrane

Hold in the cell parts and controls what enters and leaves the cell.

Cell Wall

Protects the cell and helps maintain its shape.

Cytoplasm

To hold space between organelles and support the organelles.

Nucleus

Control cell process and contains DNA.

Nuclear Envelope

Controls flow of things into the nucleus.

Nucleolus

Where ribosomes are made.

Chromatin

Genetic material

Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum

Synthesis and Transporation of lipids, detoxifies substances

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

Main site of protein synthesis and transportation

Ribosome

Site of protein synthesis

Golgi Apparatus

Sorts, modifies, and packages proteins for use within the cell or export outside the cell.

Lysosomes

Digests material (suicide cell: if cell is bad, will burst on purpose so enzyme consume cell).

Vacuole

They store food, water, and variety of nutrients (sometimes they store waste products).

Cytoskeleton

Provides important structural frame work for cell shape.

Centrioles

Help with cell division

Cilia

Move liquid past the surface of the cell.

Flagella

Whipping motion - propeller

Chloroplasts

Capture the energy from sunlight and convert it into chemical energy in a process called photosynthesis.

Mitochondria

Produces the energy currency of the cell, ATP and regulates cellular metabolism.

Vesicle

Transport materials around the cell
