Cell Organelles and Their
Functions
The Animal Cell
The Plant Cell
The Cell Membrane
• Functioncontrols the
movement
of
materials
into and
out of the
cell
The cytoplasm
• Cytoplasm fills
cell from the
nucleus to the
cell
membrane;
includes fluid,
cytoskeleton,
and all
organelles
(except
nucleus)
The endoplasmic reticulum
• A pathway
for the
transport
of
materials
throughout
the cell;
rough and
smooth
The nucleus
• Holds genetic
material;
controls cell
functions
Nucleolus
• Round
body
within the
nucleus;
where
ribosomes
are made.
Ribosomes
• They build
protein;
made of
RNA and
protein.
Some are
free, some
attached to
ER.
Lysosomes
• Contain
digestive
enzymes that
break down
large
molecules, old
cells, worn-out
organelles
Mitochondria
• The powerhouse of the cell; transfers energy
from organic molecules to ATP
Golgi Apparatus
• Packages and secretes products of the cell.
Centrioles (animal cells)
• Involved in
cell division in
animal cells
Vacuoles
• Store food, waste, and water and dissolved
materials. Animal cell vacuoles form and reform
over and over again.
Cell Wall
• Gives a
plant cell its
shape;
provides
structure; not
found in
animal cells
Cilia
• Short hairlike
structures that
enable a
single-celled
organism to
move; also line
respiratory
tract
Flagella
• Long, hairlike
structures used
for movement
Chloroplast
• Contains
chlorophyll to
capture light
for
photosynthesis;
site of
photosynthesis
Chromosomes
• Rod-shaped
bodies
found in the
nucleus;
composed
of DNA
Microtubule
• Cylinders
that
support
and give
the cell
shape
Pink fuzzy slippers
• What
organelle
do these
represent?
