Vacuole
Regulates what comes into/leaves the cell Barrier to the outside of the cell Semi-permeable Allows small molecules in/out easily
Has a membrane around it Contains cell’s genetic material (DNA) Controls cell’s activities “Brian” of the cell
Center most part of the nucleus Contains RNA Makes ribosomes
Fluid part of the cell Fills the inside of the cell The “jelly” that holds all of the cell’s organelles
Small spherical structures Function: making proteins Mostly found on the endoplasmic reticulum, but some can be free floating
Long flattened, pancake like Function: packaging proteins made by ribosomes Making lipids
“Rough” ER because surface is peppered with ribosomes Lots of proteins are made here
Long flattened structure Proteins are concentrated and repackaged here Packages proteins in new vesicles “Post office” of cell
Protein Pathway Nucleolus Makes the ribosomes Ribosomes travel to the rough ER Rough ER peppered with ribosomes Ribosomes make the proteins Proteins travel to smooth ER Smooth ER Packages the proteins Golgi Apparatus concentrates and repackages proteins into vesicles Vesicles fuse with cell membrane and are released from the cell
Organelles with outer membrane and inner folded membrane ATP is made on folded membrane “Power house” of cell Muscle cells
Membrane lined containers Hold water and waste Small is animal cells, large in plant cells Vacuole
Spherical structures Lots of powerful digestive enzymes Break down old broken organelles Removes waste White blood cells
