1
Cell Structure and Organelles
2
Cell wall functions to protect and support cells
made of a rigid material called cellulose in plants animal cells don’t have cell walls
3
Cell Membrane protects the cell
controls the movement of materials in and out of the cell (selectively permeable) found in all cells
4
Cell Membrane cont. The cell membrane is made of phospholipids that are constantly moving. Small molecules (e.g. CO2, O2, H2O) can diffuse through the phospholipids unassisted. Proteins are embedded in the membrane that act as channels to move larger molecules in and out.
5
Cytoplasm The cytoplasm is everything inside the cell membrane, but outside the nucleus. The cytoplasm is a jelly-like substance made mostly of water that fills the cell. Organelles are located in the cytoplasm.
6
Nucleus and Nucleolus Nucleus: control center of the cell
contains chromosomes (made of DNA) Nucleolus: a dense area (darker area) within the nucleus ribosomes are produced in the nucleolus
7
Mitochondrion tiny, oval-shaped organelle that provides cells with energy (ATP) mitochondria are the site of aerobic cellular respiration ATP is used by other organelles for energy for cell processes ____________ + _________+ ________ ________ + ____________
8
Ribosome ribosomes are microscopic spheres attached to the endoplasmic reticulum or floating in the cytoplasm ribosomes make proteins
9
Endoplasmic Reticulum
a twisting network of canals functions to transport materials throughout the cell may have ribosomes attached to it (rough ER); smooth ER has no ribosomes attached
10
Golgi Apparatus flattened sacs that produce vesicles (transport sacs)
they function to modify and store cellular secretions (e.g. proteins)
12
Lysosome saclike structure formed by the Golgi apparatus
contains enzymes that can break down large molecules or worn out cell parts
13
Vacuole fluid-filled space containing water, sugar, and proteins
helps with water regulation in plants
14
vacuoles can also store food or help some organisms move
15
Centriole small protein structures critical to cell division (paired)
not found in plant cells
16
Chloroplast found only in green plants and some protists
Contains the light sensitive protein pigment chlorophyll CO2 + H2O + sunlight sugar + O2
17
Chloroplast convert sunlight into food for the cell via photosynthesis
____________ + _________+ ________ ________ + ____________
18
Cilia and Flagella fine protein fibres used for locomotion
Cilia: short, may be numerous on cell surface Flagella: long, usually few in number on cell surface
19
Cytoskeleton protein fibres network that help anchor organelles in place and give structure to the cell
20
Plant Cell electron micrograph of a typical plant cell
What structures are found only in plant cells? cell wall large vacuole chloroplast
21
Animal Cell electron micrograph of a typical animal cell
What structures are found only in animal cells? cilia flagella centrioles
22
What structures are found in both plant and animal cells?
cell membrane cytoplasm nucleus/nucleolus mitochondrion ribosomes endoplasmic reticulum lysosomes golgi apparatus cilia, flagella; centrioles
