Cell Structure and Function

AB
This structure surrounds and protects the animal cell and is semi-permeable.cell membrane
Allows some things to pass through while keeping other things out.semi-permeable
The control center of the cell. Where DNA is copiednucleus
Stores materials that will be used to make ribosomesnucleolus
A cell that does NOT have a nucleus.prokaryote
A cell that DOES have a nucleuseukaryote
tiny organs or structures that perform specific functions within the cellorganelle
A gel like fluid within the cell that holds the organelles in place.cytoplasm
a rigid structure that gives support to a PLANT cell. The outer most boundary of a PLANT cell!cell wall
a web of proteins that acts as both a muscle and a skeleton to keep the cell's membrane from collapsing and to help the cell move.cytoskeleton
A protective boundary that surrounds the nucleus and allows some materials to pass through while keeping other things out!nuclear membrane
are responsible for making proteinsribosomes
The transportation system within the cell.Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
The power plant of the cell, this structure releases energy for the cell to use.mitochondria
this structure is found only in plant cells and is where photosynthesis takes place.chloroplast
packages proteins to exit the cell, "the garbage man"golgi body
storage compartment for the cellvacuole
uses enzymes to digest dead or dying cellslysosome
What structures can be found in plant cells, but NOT in animal cells?cell wall and chloroplast
