1. Cell Organelles

2. Inside a Cell Plant & Animals contain ORGANELLES
Like organs in your body ...
Each organelle has a different job to help keep the cell alive

3. Brain Pop
Cells
Cell Structures

4. Cell Membrane  “The Bouncer”
Lipid bi-layer, semi-permeable
Separates cell from its environment
All cells!
*It says what
Comes in and
what goes out

5. Cell Wall Only in plant and most prokaryotic cells!
Provide support and structure  Suit of Armor

6. Nucleus Control center of cell ( the BRAIN)
Controls reproduction & activities of cell
Contains DNA
Only plant and
Animal cells!

7. Inside the Nucleus protects the nucleus makes RIBOSOMES Chromosomes
Nuclear Membrane
protects the nucleus
Nucleolus
makes RIBOSOMES
Chromosomes
contains DNA

8. Nuclear Membrane Double membrane surrounding nucleus
Controls what goes
through pores
Selectively permeable

9. Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
Transportation network of cell
System of canals  Like a HIGHWAY
Proteins and other materials pass through
Lipid synthesis
Organelle assembly
Plants and animals

10. 2 Types of Highways Smooth ER Rough ER (1-26) = Fast No Ribosomes
(Knob Creek Rd.) =
Slow
Contains Ribosomes

11. Ribosomes
Makes Proteins
Free or attached to ER
All cells!

12. Lysosomes Cell Janitor  cleans the cell Contains digestive enzymes
to break down materials
Animal cells

13. Golgi :Apparatus or Complex or Bodies
Packaging structures
Roll up proteins into membrane bound vesicles for export
The Post Office
or UPS
Plant and Animal

14. Centrioles
Aid in Reproduction of cell (mitosis)
Only in animals!

15. Central Vacuole * Its like Tupperware!
Compartments used for storage of H2O, food, & wastes
Small or none in animals
Large in plants
* Its like
Tupperware!
Vacuole

16. Chloroplasts GLUCOSE Only in plants! Chlorophyll Photosynthesis
Takes in Light
to make
GLUCOSE

17. Mitochondria Powerhouse or Battery of the cell
Site of cellular respiration
Breaks down glucose
for ATP
Double Membrane
Plants and animals

18. Cilia Short hairlike structures used in locomotion & feeding
in animals (single cells)

19. Flagella Long extensions of cell membrane used in locomotion
Usually in prokaryotic

20. Pseudopodia Temporary projection of cytoplasm for MOVEMENT Amoebas
Animal and prokaryotic

21. Cytoplasm  its like Jell-O
Jelly like fluid surrounding organelles
Cell reactions take place here
All cells!

22. Cytoskeleton Support Help maintain cell shape and structure
Aid in movement
ALL cells

23. What are the parts in a plant cell that aren’t in an animal cell?
Chloroplast
Large Vacuole
Cell Wall

24. What is the difference between smooth & rough ER?
What does the ER do?
Smooth = No Ribosomes
Rough = Ribosomes
Transportation & Lipid Assembly

25. Why do plants need a cell wall & chloroplast and animal cells do not ?

26. Organelle Diagnosis You are the cell “doctor”
From the conversation with your patients, jot down notes on their symptoms (what’s wrong)
Diagnose their illness (which organelle is not functioning correctly)

27. Essential Question - What are the functions of the major cellular organelles?
Pretend you are a cell. Write a quick story about how 6 of your organelles help you survive.

28. Label all of the organelles

29. Flashcards – for each organelle
On the front
Number the card
Glue down the picture
On the back
Name of organelle
Function of organelle
Make a note if it’s only found in certain cell types
