Cell Membrane
A double layer fat that separates cell from outside, controls what leaves and enters, and recognizes signals for other cells
Cell Membrane Structure
double layer of phospholipid bilayers with receptor molecules
Cell Membrane Plant/Animal/Prokaryotic?
All
Vacuole
Acts as a storage for nutrients and waste
Vesicle
transports, stores, and digests cellular materials
Vesicle & Vacuole Structure
A membrane sac
Vesicle & Vacuole Plant/Animal/Prokaryotic?
Plant & Animal
Mitochondria
Makes ATP energy from cellular respiration
Mitochondria Structure
Double layer phospholipid bilayers
Lysosomes Plant/Animal/Prokaryotic?
Animal
Lysosomes Structure
A membrane sac of digestive enzymes
Mitochondria Plant/Animal/Prokaryotic?
Plant & Animal
Lysosomes
digests food, cleans up & recycles old cellular components and unneeded large molecules
Chloroplast
Makes energy and sugar from sunlight (photosynthesis) which builds leaves, roots, and fruit out of the sugars
Chloroplast structure
A double mebrane that has stacks of disc-like sacs inside
Nucleus
control center of cells, protects DNA, creates instructions for building proteins
Chloroplast Plant/Animal/Prokaryotic?
Plant
Nucleus Structure
Covered with nuclear membrane and filled with chromosomes (DNA) that has a nucleolus
Nucleus Plant/Animal/Prokaryotic?
Plant & Animal
Ribosomes
Makes the protein, reads instructions to build protein from DNA
Ribosomes Structure
Some free in cytoplasm, some attached to ER (looks like hands clasped together)
Ribosomes Plant/Animal/Prokaryotic?
All
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
Completes proteins after ribosomes builds it, makes membranes
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) structure
Rough ER: ribosomes attached to it, folds proteins Smooth ER: makes membrane
