Cell structures

AB
prokaryoteno membrane bound organelles; bacteria cells
eukaryotecontains membrane bound organelles including a nucleus; plant, animal, fungi cells
nucleuscontains DNA and nucleolus; protects the genetic material (DNA)
nucleolussite of ribosome synthesis
ribosomessmall structure that produces proteins
rough endoplasmic reticulumlocation where proteins made by the ribosomes get folded and modified
smooth endoplasmic reticulumsite where lipids are made; this organelle detoxifies substances that can harm the cell
organellemembrane bound structure found in eukaryotes
Golgi apparatussite where proteins are modified and packaged in vesicles to be secreted from the cell
lysosomevesicle filled with enzymes that can break down organic molecules or waste material
vacuolemembrane bound sac that contains food; works with the kysosome to break down material
central vacuolefound in plants; contains water
mitochondriaorganelle where sugar energy is converted to energy the cell can use in the form of ATP; cells that need a lot of energy would have more of these organelles
chloroplastfound only in plants; captures sunlight energy and converts it into chemical energy in the form of sugars
cytoskeletonincludes microtubules and microfilaments; provides support for the cell and helps in movement within the cell
centriolestructures found in animal cells in the region where microtubules are built
cell membraneregulates what can enter and leave a cell; is selectively permeable; regulates using simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and active transport
cytoplasmregion outside of the nucleus and inside of the cell membrane; contains organelles, cytosol, and other structures
cell specializationcells havinf different shapes and function in an organism
cell wallprovides support to plant and bacteria cells; plant cell walls made of cellulose; prevents lysis in plant cells
