Plant Cell

Parts of a Cell Organelle Function Animal or Plant or BOTH Cell Membrane Controls what enters & exits the cell. BOTH Nucleus Controls everything in the cell; contains DNA BOTH Nucleolus Takes RNA and makes ribosomes BOTH Ribosomes Links together amino acids to make proteins (that means enzymes too!) BOTH Endoplasmi c Reticulum Transport, "intracellular highway“. Site of protein synthesis; makes more ER BOTH Golgi Apparatus Checks, modifies & packages proteins BOTH Lysosomes Breaks down food, waste & damaged cell parts all within the cell BOTH; more numerous

Parts of a Cell Organelle Function Animal or Plant or BOTH Vacuole fluid filled sacs; small in animal cells; large in plant cells; stores materials for cell BOTH Chloroplasts Uses sunlight to create food, photosynthesis (only found in green plants & algae) PLANTS ONLY Mitochondria Supplies energy to the cell; site of cellular respiration; ‘powerhouse’ of cell BOTH Cytoplasm Hold organelles in place & site for chemical BOTH reactions Centrioles/ Centromeres Helps the cell divide ANIMAL ONLY Cell Wall Provides extra structure to plant cells PLANT ONLY Flagella/Cilia Movement in animal cells; act like a tail ANIMAL ONLY
