Cell Organelle Descriptions and Functions CELL PART DESCRIPTION CELL WALL Strong, stiff, nonliving layer outside the cell membrane; in plants, made of cellulose. CELL MEMBRANE CYTOPLASM NUCLEUS PLANT, ANIMAL OR BOTH FUNCTION Controls movement of materials into and out of the cell. Region between the nucleus and the cell membrane: consists of a jellylike substance that contains many organelles. Large, oval structure in the center of the cell; bounded by the nuclear membrane; contains the chromosomes and the nucleolus. NUCLEOLUS Place where ribosomes are made. CHROMOSOME Directs cell activities; passes on traits of the cell to new cells; stores information for building proteins. ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM Life Science Chapter 4 System of clear, tubular passageways: spread throughout the cytoplasm Created by Susan Busch 2007 Both Cell Organelle Descriptions and Functions CELL PART DESCRIPTION RIBOSOME Small grain like body made primarily of RNA; may be attached to ER or floating free in cytoplasm; produced in nucleolus “Powerhouse” of the cell; place where food molecules are broken down and their energy used to make special energy-rich molecules MITOCHONDRION Stores food, water, wastes and other materials; in plants, keeps cell firm. VACUOLE LYSOSOME CHLOROPLAST PLANT, ANIMAL OR BOTH FUNCTION Small, round sac in cytoplasm; contains digestive enzymes Animal, rare in plants Large green structure in cytoplasm; contains chlorophyll VESICLE GOLGI BODY Life Science Chapter 4 Created by Susan Busch 2007 Cell Organelle Descriptions and Functions Life Science Chapter 4 Created by Susan Busch 2007
