For movement.
For cellular
communication.
Contains genetic
code (DNA).
Protection from
predators (WBC).
Structure/Support.
Contains everything,
regulates in/out.
Where proteins are
made.
Z
Don’t forget, Cytoskeleton

Animal Cell
J. Nucleus - contains DNA with coded instructions giving cells unique characteristics.
D. Nucleolus – Inside the Nucleus, makes ribosomes.
E. Nuclear Envelope(membrane) - surrounds nucleus - has pores to allow materials in and
out.
H. Ribosomes - site of protein synthesis (follows instructions from nucleus).
All the little black dots are Ribosomes!
A. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) -transport & modification of proteins.
Like UPS of the cell!
C. Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) -lipid synthesis, used in detoxification in
liver, & release calcium for muscle contraction.
G. Golgi Apparatus - Packaging macromolecules for transport elsewhere
in the cell.
Z. Lysosomes - Filled with enzymes for intracellular digestion, only in ANIMALS.(bacteria, worn-out organelles, food, even
the cell they are in!)
This is how a tadpole looses
its tail.
F. Mitochondria - Provides the energy a cell needs to move, divide, etc.
(powerhouse of the cell)
1000 per cell!!
I. Plasma Membrane - Protective, flexible barrier between the cell and its environment— regulates what goes
in and out.
B. Cytosol—the fluid inside cell.Cytoplasm = (Cytosol + organelles inside)
The area between the
nucleus (and all other organelles)
and the cell membrane.
Cytoskeleton – maintains cell shape – also moves organelles around internally,
only in Animals.

K. Chloroplasts - Contain chlorophyll and use the energy from the sun to make
food (photosynthesis)
Cell Wall - Provides and maintains shape of plant cells - STRONG
(contains cellulose)
Vacuoles - Stores materials like water, food, other nutrients and waste products
(larger in plants)
