Looking Inside Cells Cell Wall Description: strong, stiff layer outside of the cell membrane Function: protects and supports the cell Only in plant cells Cell Membrane Description: elastic and flexible layer that surrounds the cell – has small openings called pores Function: controls what goes in and out of the cell “doorway of the cell” Found in both Nucleus Description: circle or oval - surrounded by the nuclear membrane Function:“The Control Center” or “brain” of the cell that holds the DNA and directs all of the cell’s activities Found in both chromosomes Description: shaped like an “X” - found in the nucleus- made of DNA Function: passes on traits to the new cell Found in both Nuclear Membrane Description: layer that surrounds the nucleus and has pores Function: controls what goes in and out of the nucleus – “doorway of the nucleus” Found in both Nucleolus Description: small, round object in the nucleus Function: where ribosomes are made Found in both Cytoplasm Description: clear, thick, gel-like fluid Function: holds the organelles in place Found in both Mitochondria Description: rod or oval shaped with a folded line inside Function: “The Powerhouse” – it produces the energy the cell needs Found in both Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) Description: clear tubes that make a maze of passageways Function: carry materials from one place to another -the “transportation system” Found in both Ribosomes Description: small circles – attached to the ER or floating in the cytoplasm Function: makes proteins – “factory” Found in both Golgi Bodies Description: stack of pancakes – flattened tubes Function: receives, packages, and sends out materials -acts like a “post office” Found in both Chloroplasts Description: green ovals (they are green because of chlorophyll) Function: traps energy from the sun to produce food for the plant cell Only in plants Vacuoles Description: small and round in animal cells and one large oval (foot) in plant cells Function: stores water, food , and wastes - the “storage area” Found in both (but they are different size and shape) Lysosomes Description: small and round Function: to break down food and destroy old cells “Clean-up Crew” – garbage disposal Found in animal cells and rare in plant cells Animal Cell Cytoplasm Nucleolus Nucleus Ribosomes Cell Membrane Mitochondria Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum Golgi Bodies Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum Plant Cell Cytoplasm Vacuole Smooth ER Ribosomes Chloroplasts Cell Membrane Cell Wall Nucleolus Golgi Bodies Nucleus Mitochondria Rough ER What is an organelle? A tiny structure that has a specific function in the cell What organelles are found in the cytoplasm? • Mitochondria • ER • Ribosomes • Golgi bodies • Chloroplasts • Vacuoles • lysosomes • Now let’s talk about structures only found in PLANT Cells!! • Answer: cell wall and chloroplasts ANY QUESTIONS?
