3. Function: provide support and protection for the
cell; allows water, oxygen, carbon dioxide and
other things to pass through
FOUND ONLY IN PLANT CELLS
4. Description:
Phospholipid Bilayer with proteins embedded in it
Function: Provides a barrier between the inside of
the cell and the external environment
Found in ALL Cells
6. Function: controls most cell
processes an contains hereditary
info of DNA; has chromatin
which forms chromosomes during
mitosis
Location: near the center of the
cell
Found in all EUKARYOTIC cells
8. Description: DNA Description: Condensed
bound to proteins chromatin, distinct,
that is visible within thread-like structures
the nucleus containing genetic
information.
Location: WITHIN
the nucleus. Location: WITHIN the
nucleus.
Found in all EUKARYOTIC cells
9. TYPES:
Free – are floating around in the
cytoplasm
Bound – are attached to rough
endoplasmic reticulum
Function: Protein Synthesis
Found in ALL cells
10. Function: use energy from food
to make high-energy particles
for the cell to use
Location: in the cytoplasm of
the cell
Nickname: Powerhouse
Found in all EUKARYOTIC Cells
11. Description: Double membrane
structure containing stacks of
photosynthetic membranes which
contain the green pigment
chlorophyll.
Function: Use energy from sunlight to
make energy-rich food molecules in a
process known as photosynthesis.
Found ONLY in PLANT Cells
12. Description: Folded membrane
studded with ribosomes that
extends from the nuclear
envelope
Function: Protein synthesis can
occur ON the ribosomes and then
the proteins are modified on the
inside of the rough ER.
Found in all EUKARYOTIC Cells
13. Description: Folded membrane
that extends from the rough ER
or stands alone in the cytoplasm
Function: Contains collections of
enzymes for specialized
tasks, including assembly of
lipids.
Found in all EUKARYOTIC Cells
14. Description: Folded membranes that
are stacked and form an assembly
line for final modification of proteins
Function: Using enzymes, it attaches
carbohydrates & lipids to proteins.
From the Golgi, proteins are sent to
their final destination in vesicles.
Found in all EUKARYOTIC Cells
15. Function: Contain enzymes used to breakdown lipids,
carbohydrates, and proteins.
Lysosomal Enzymes can:
- Digest food
- Destroy bacteria
- Recycle damaged organelles
- Function in embryonic development in animals
Found in MOST EUKARYOTIC Cells
16. Function: Location for storage of
water, salts, proteins & carbohydrates. In
plant cells there is usually a
single, large, central vacuole that stores
liquid.
Found in EUKARYOTIC Cells
Larger in Plant Cells than in Animal Cells
17. Function: helps the cell maintain its shape; also
involved in movement inside the cell
Location: network of protein filaments that goes
throughout the cell
Components: Microtubules & Microfilaments
Found in ALL Cells
