Cell Organelles Review

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Nucleus 1. n n n Nickname: “The Control Center” Function: holds the DNA Parts: 1. Nucleolus: dark spot in the middle of the nucleus that helps make ribosomes

Figure 7 -5 Plant and Animal Cells Animal Cell Section 7 -2 Cytoplasm Nucleolus Nucleus Go to Section: Ribosomes Cell Membrane

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Ribosomes 2. n n Function: makes proteins Found in all cells, prokaryotic and eukaryotic

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) 3. n n Nickname: “Roads” Function: The internal delivery system of the cell

Endoplasmic Reticulum n 2 Types: 1. Rough ER: n n 2. Rough appearance because it has ribosomes Function: helps make proteins, that’s why it has ribosomes Smooth ER: n n NO ribosomes Function: makes fats or lipids

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Golgi Complex 4. n n n Nickname: The shippers Function: packages, modifies, and transports materials to different location inside/outside of the cell Appearance: stack of pancakes

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Lysosomes: circular, but bigger than ribosomes) 5. n n Nickname: “Clean-up Crews” Function: to break down food into particles the rest of the cell can use and to destroy old cells

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Mitochondria 6. n n Nickname: “The Powerhouse” Function: Energy formation n Breaks down food to make ATP n ATP: is the major fuel for all cell activities that require energy

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Vacuoles 7. n Function: stores water n This is what makes lettuce crisp n When there is no water, the plant wilts

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Chloroplasts 8. n n Function: traps energy from the sun to produce food for the plant cell Green in color because of chlorophyll, which is a green pigment

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function Cell Wall 9. n n Function: provides support and protection to the cell membrane Found outside the cell membrane in plant cells

Eukaryotic Cell Organelles and Function n 10. Cell membrane n n n Surrounds the cell Controls what enters and exits the cell ALL cells have it.
