Organelle Description Function Animal, Plant or Both CELL WALL Rigid, tough, made of cellulose Protects and supports the cell Plant CELL MEMBRANE Thin, covering, protects cells Protects the cell, performs Both active transport and passive transport, moves materials in and out of the cell, communication CYTOPLASM Jelly like substance Pads and supports that contains organelles organelles inside the cell. Moves by cyclosis NUCLEUS Dense, ball shaped structure, contains DNA Controls all of the cell’s activities Both NUCLEAR MEMBRANE Thin covering over the nucleus Covers and protects the nucleus Both ROUGH E.R. (ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM) Clear, tubular system of tunnels throughout the cell that has ribosomes on it. Transports proteins (ribosomes) throughout the cell. Both SMOOTH E.R. (ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM) Clear, tubular system of tunnels that does not have ribosomes on it. Transports materials and makes lipids (which turn into fat) in the cell. Both RIBOSOME Small specks made of RNA. Found in cytoplasm or on the rough E.R. Makes proteins Both MITOCHONDRIA Location in the cytoplasm, bean shaped with folds in them Supplies energy or ATP for Both the cell through respiration using glucose & oxygen VACUOLE Large open storage area, smaller in animal cells Storage tank for food, water, wastes or enzymes Both Both CHLOROPLAST Green structures that contain chlorophyll (make plants green) Captures sunlight and uses it to produce food through photosynthesis Plant GOLGI BODY Small bags with tubes connecting them Packages and secrets proteins for use in and out of the cell Both LYSOSOME Small, round structures, containing enzymes Digests older cell parts, food or other objects Animal* NUCLEOLUS (Bonus!) Small dark area in the nucleus Produces ribosomes Both * Some scientists have found evidence that lysosomes are present in some cells, however, it is not present in all plant cells. For our purposes, we are going to say they are present in animal cells.
