Eukaryotic Cell Structures Structures within a eukaryotic cell that perform important cellular functions are known as organelles. Cell biologists divide the eukaryotic cell into two major parts: the nucleus and the cytoplasm. The Cytoplasm is the portion of the cell outside the nucleus. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Nucleus What is the function of the nucleus? Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Nucleus Nucleus The nucleus is the control center of the cell. The nucleus contains nearly all the cell's DNA and with it the coded instructions for making proteins and other important molecules. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Nucleus The Nucleus Chromatin Nuclear envelope Nucleolus The nucleus controls most cell processes and contains the hereditary information of DNA. The DNA combines with protein to form chromatin, which is found throughout the nucleus. The small, dense region in the nucleus is the nucleolus. Nuclear pores Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Ribosomes What is the function of the ribosomes? Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Ribosomes Ribosomes Proteins are assembled on ribosomes. Ribosomes are small particles of RNA and protein found throughout the cytoplasm. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

Endoplasmic Reticulum What is the function of the endoplasmic reticulum? Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Endoplasmic Reticulum There are two types of ER—rough and smooth. Endoplasmic Reticulum Ribosomes Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Endoplasmic Reticulum The ER functions as a manufacturing and packaging system for proteins. It works closely with the Golgi apparatus, and ribosomes. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Golgi Apparatus What is the function of the Golgi apparatus? Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Golgi Apparatus The Golgi apparatus appears as a stack of closely apposed membranes. The Golgi apparatus modifies, sorts, and packages proteins. Notice the stacklike membranes that make up the Golgi apparatus. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Golgi Apparatus It is another packaging organelle like the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The Golgi apparatus gathers simple molecules and combines them to make molecules that are more complex. It then takes those big molecules, packages them in vesicles, and either stores them for later use or sends them out of the cell. It is also the organelle that builds lysosomes (cell digestion machines). Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Think Pair Share How do the ribosomes, Golgi apparatus, and Endoplasmic Reticulum work together? Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Ribosomes create molecules the cell needs, like proteins The Endoplasmic Reticulum stores or packages up those molecules The Golgi apparatus ships those packages out of the cell Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Vacuoles What is the function of vacuoles? Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Vacuoles In many plant cells there is a single, large central vacuole filled with liquid. Stores sugar, nutrients, and water Vacuole Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

Mitochondria and Chloroplasts What is the function of the mitochondria? Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Mitochondria and Chloroplasts Nearly all eukaryotic cells contain mitochondria. (Plants and Animals). Mitochondria convert the chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are more convenient for the cell to use. Mitochondrion Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Think Pair Share Do you think plant cells will have mitochondria? Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Do you think plant cells will have mitochondria? Yes! They still do. But they also have… Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Mitochondria and Chloroplasts What is the function of chloroplasts? Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Mitochondria and Chloroplasts Plants and some other organisms contain chloroplasts. Chloroplasts capture energy from sunlight and convert it into chemical energy in a process called photosynthesis. Chloroplast Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Think Pair Share Besides the chloroplast, what other structures do plant cells have that animal cells do not have? Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Besides the chloroplast, what other structures do plant cells have that animal cells do not have? Chloroplast, Cell Wall, Central Vacuole Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Cytoskeleton What are the functions of the cytoskeleton? Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Cytoskeleton The cytoskeleton is a network of proteins that helps the cell to maintain its shape. The cytoskeleton is also involved in movement. cyto= cell Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Cytoskeleton Cytoskeleton Cell membrane Endoplasmic reticulum Microtubule The cytoskeleton is a network of protein filaments that helps the cell to maintain its shape and is involved in many forms of cell movement. Microtubules are part of the cytoskeleton that help maintain cell shape. Microfilament Ribosomes Mitochondrion Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall Cytoskeleton Centrioles are located near the nucleus and help to organize cell division. Cell Organelle Interactive Plant and Animal Model Interactive Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall

Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall 7-2 In the nucleus of a cell, the DNA is usually visible as a dense region called the nucleolus. the nuclear envelope. granular material called chromatin. condensed bodies called chloroplasts. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall 7-2 Two functions of vacuoles are storing materials and helping to break down organelles. assemble proteins. maintain homeostasis. make new organelles. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall 7-2 Chloroplasts are found in the cells of plants only. plants and some other organisms. all eukaryotes. most prokaryotes. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall 7-2 Which of the following is NOT a function of the Golgi apparatus? synthesize proteins. modify proteins. sort proteins. package proteins. Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall 7-2 Which of the following is a function of the cytoskeleton? manufactures new cell organelles assists in movement of some cells from one place to another releases energy in cells modifies, sorts, and packages proteins Copyright Pearson Prentice Hall
