Cell Structures, Functions and Transport

ALWAYS REMEMBER!!! Pro = No! Eu = Do!

Animal Cell Nucleus Nucleolus Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum Ribosomes Golgi Bodies Mitochondria Cell Membrane Cytoplasm

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Cell Membrane Nickname: “The Screen Door” Function: Hold and protect the cell Control the movement of materials into and out of the cell

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Nucleus Nickname: “The Control Center” Function: Holds the DNA Parts: 1. Nucleolus: dark spot in the middle of the nucleus that helps make ribosomes

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function DNA Nickname: “The Info” Function hereditary material that is passed on to you from your parents and is kept safe inside the Nucleus

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Cytoplasm Nickname: “Jell-O” Function: A watery, gel-like material in which cell parts move

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Vesicle Nickname: “The Bag” Function: Small membrane-enclosed sack that can store or transport substances

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Ribosomes Nickname: “The Factory” Function: makes proteins Made in Nucleolus Found in all cells NOT membrane bound Smallest & most abundant organelle in the cell

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) Nickname: “The Highway” Function: The internal delivery system of the cell There are 2 types: Rough & Smooth

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Golgi Bodies (Golgi Complex) Nickname: “The Post Office” Function: packages and transports materials to different location inside/outside of the cell Appearance: stack of pancakes

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Lysosomes: circular shape but larger than ribosomes Nickname: “The Trash Man” Function: to break down food into particles the rest of the cell can use and to destroy old cells

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Mitochondria Nickname: “The Powerhouse” Function: Breaks down food molecules to release energy for the cells

Section 7-2 Figure 7-5 Plant and Animal Cells Go to Section: Plant Cell Cell Membrane Vacuole Chloroplasts Cell Wall

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Cell Wall Nickname: “The Fence” Function Tough, rigid structure found outside of cell membrane that provide support for plants and fungi

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Chloroplasts Nickname: “The Hulk” Function: traps energy from the sun to produce food for the plant cell Green in color because of chlorophyll, which is a green pigment

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Vacuoles Nickname: “The Water Tower” Function: stores water & give support This is what makes lettuce crisp When there is no water, the plant wilts They are also found in animal cells, but are smaller

PROKARYOTIC CELLS

Bacteria Cell

Only in Prokaryotic Cells Gelatin-Like Capsule: Nick Name: “The Armor” Function: outer covering protects the cell when it is eaten by other organisms Allows Bacteria to survive and be dormant for many years until the conditions are right

Only in Prokaryotic Cells Flagellum: Nickname: “The tail” Function: Helps the cell move Used as a sensory organ
