Where proteins are
made.

Don’t forget,
Cytoskeleton Z

4. J. Nucleus - contains DNA with coded
instructions giving cells unique characteristics.

5. D. Nucleolus – Inside the Nucleus,
makes ribosomes.

6. E. Nuclear Envelope(membrane) - surrounds
nucleus - has pores to allow materials in and
out.

7. H. Ribosomes - site of protein synthesis
(follows instructions from nucleus).
All the little black dots are Ribosomes!

8. A. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) -
transport & modification of proteins.
Like UPS of
the cell!

9. C. Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) -
lipid synthesis, used in detoxification in
liver, & release calcium for muscle
contraction.

10. G. Golgi Apparatus - Packaging
macromolecules for transport elsewhere
in the cell.

11. Z. Lysosomes - Filled with enzymes for
intracellular digestion, only in ANIMALS.
(bacteria, worn-out organelles, food, even
the cell they are in!)
This is how a
tadpole looses
its tail. 

12. F. Mitochondria - Provides the energy a
cell needs to move, divide, etc.
(powerhouse of the cell)
1000 per cell!!

13. I. Plasma Membrane - Protective,
flexible barrier between the cell and
its environment— regulates what goes
in and out.

14. B. Cytosol—the fluid inside cell.
Cytoplasm = (Cytosol + organelles inside)
The area
between the
nucleus (and all
other organelles)
and the cell
membrane.

15. Cytoskeleton – maintains cell shape – also
moves organelles around internally,
only in Animals.

17. K. Chloroplasts - Contain chlorophyll and
use the energy from the sun to make
food (photosynthesis)

18. Cell Wall - Provides and maintains shape
of plant cells - STRONG
(contains cellulose)

19. Vacuoles - Stores materials like water,
food, other nutrients and waste products
(larger in plants)
