ORGANELLES RFMelton
2
PROKARYOTES VS. EUKARYOTES
Prokaryotes lack membrane-bound organelles (nucleus, ER, mitochondria, chloroplasts, etc.); bacteria Eukaryotes have membrane-bound organelles RFMelton

4
NUCLEUS Usually located in the cell’s center
Surrounded by a nuclear membrane (or envelope) with small pores Contains chromosomes made of DNA Genetic control over the cell RFMelton
5
RFMelton
6
MITOCHONDRIA Located throughout cytoplasm
Two membranes – an outer, smooth membrane and an inner, folded one Contains DNA Site of cellular respiration (energy in glucose converted into ATP) RFMelton
7
RFMelton
8
CHLOROPLASTS Typically found in plant and algal cells
Surrounded by two membranes and a complex series of inner membranes organized in stacks Contain chlorophyll Contains DNA Site of photosynthesis (energy from the sun converts CO2 and H2O into sugar) RFMelton

11
LYSOSOMES Membrane-bound organelles filled with digestive enzymes
Break down food and worn out organelles RFMelton

RFMelton
13
VACUOLES Membrane-bound storage compartments (for food, water, waste, salts, proteins, etc.) Plant cells usually have a large, central water vacuole RFMelton
14
RFMelton
15
RIBOSOMES Very small organelles composed of rRNA and protein
Found on the surface of the ER or free in the cytoplasm Site of protein synthesis RFMelton
16
RFMelton
17
ENDOPLASMIC RETICULA (ER)
Network of membranous tubes throughout the cytoplasm Transports materials (usually protein) Rough ER has ribosomes; smooth ER doesn’t have ribosomes RFMelton
18
RFMelton
19
GOLGI (apparatus, complex or body)
Made of curved, stacked membranes Modifies, collects, packages, and distributes molecules (usually protein) within the cell or out of the cell RFMelton

22
CILIA Short, hair-like projections that extend through the cell membrane to the outside of the cell Usually function in locomotion Found in large numbers and relatively short \45 RFMelton
23
RFMelton
24
FLAGELLA Long, whip-like projections that extend through the cell membrane out of the cell Function in cell locomotion RFMelton
25
RFMelton
26
CELL (PLASMA) MEMBRANE
Composed of two layers of lipids and protein Encloses the cell Regulates the passage of materials between the cell and its environment Protects and supports the cell RFMelton
27
NUCLEAR MEMBRANE (NUCLEAR ENVELOPE)
Surrounds the nucleus Regulates passage of materials between the nucleus and the cytoplasm RFMelton
28
RFMelton
29
CELL WALL Located outside the cell membrane in some cells (for ex. plants and fungi) Plant cells walls are composed of cellulose Provides protection and support Allows for specific substances to pass in and out of the cell RFMelton
30
RFMelton
31
CYTOPLASM Semi-fluid material found between all organelles outside the nucleus Functions in movement of large cellular particles and cell locomotion RFMelton
32
RFMelton
33
HIERARCHY OF MULTICELLULAR ORGANIZATION
RFMelton
34
CELLS RFMelton
35
TISSUES Groups of similar cells that work together to perform a specialized function SUCH AS: Muscle Tissue Nervous Tissue RFMelton
36
RFMelton
37
ORGANS Different types of tissues that function together SUCH AS: Stomach Kidneys RFMelton
38
RFMelton
39
ORGAN SYSTEM Two or more organs working in a coordinated way SUCH AS: Digestive System Cardiovascular System RFMelton
