What makes up a eukaryotic cell?

Eukaryotic cells are basically sacks of
fluid that are membrane bound. They
contain a nucleus and are filled with
organelles.
What is a cell organelle?

All eukaryotic cells have small organ
type parts called organelles. They are
small structures that perform
different/specific tasks which are very
similar to human organs.
Description of cell organelles

A eukaryotic cell has 5 main organelles
and they are, Mitochondria, Ribosomes,
Endoplasmic reticulum, Nucleus,
Chloroplasts.
Description of cell organelles

Bellow is a brief summary of each
organelle and the functions they do.

Mitochondria functions: Is to produce
energy, this is where food is converted to
energy.

Ribosomes functions: Is to produce protein,
and if an organism needs protein the body
just produces more Ribosomes.
Description of cell organelles

Endoplasmic reticulum functions: Is to
transport nutrients and protein etc. within a
cell.

Nucleus function: Controls the whole cell,
contains DNA and jeans.

Chloroplasts functions: Are to turn sun light
into food through photosynthesis.
Difference between animal and
plant cells
Plant cells contain Chloroplasts when
animal cells do not.
 Plants have cell walls but animal cells
do not.
 Plant cells also contain a larger central
vacuole compared to animal cells.
