1. FUNCTIONS OF ORGANELLES
Q1 WK7 D5
EUKARYOTIC CELLS
FUNCTIONS OF ORGANELLES
Strand 4: Life Science
Concept 1: The Cell
PO2: Compare the form and function of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and their cellular components.

2. CELL MEMBRANE
EXPLAIN: The cell membrane acts as a barrier that lets certain things in & out of the cell. Selectively Permeable- the membrane selects what is allowed in / out
Allows certain things in and/or out. ALSO CALLED: SELECTIVELY PERMEABLE

3. CYTOPLASM (not cytoskeleton)
SPACE
Area of the cell between the nucleus and the cell membrane
Gel-like material of the cell

4. MITOCHONDRIA (or Mitochondrion)
Transforms energy from organic compounds (food) into ATP. Provides power for the cell
ATP: chemical form of energy that the cell uses

5. The control center of the cell Stores the heredity information (DNA)
NUCLEUS
The control center of the cell
Stores the heredity information (DNA)

6. Nucleolus The center of nucleus of eukaryotic cells
The site where ribosomes are made
Composed of proteins and nucleic acids

7. Allows specific things in / out of the nucleus
NUCLEAR ENVELOPE
Allows specific things in / out of the nucleus

8. ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM
Moves protein from one end of the cell to the other

9. Golgi Bodies (or Golgi Apparatus)
Packages and refines proteins

10. LYSOSOME
LYSOSOME: Cleans up the cell
Digestive organelle; it has enzymes that removes old organelles & foreign substances.

11. Stores enzymes, metabolic waste and water
VACUOLE
Stores enzymes, metabolic waste and water

12. Converts energy from sunlight into organic energy in the cell
CHLOROPLAST
Converts energy from sunlight into organic energy in the cell
*ONLY IN PLANT CELLS

13. CELL WALL Protects the cell Provides structure & support for the cell
*ONLY IN PLANT CELLS

14. Directs the organelles that are involved with cell division (MITOSIS)
CENTRIOLES
Directs the organelles that are involved with cell division (MITOSIS)
*ONLY IN ANIMAL CELLS
End unit
