Cell Organelle
Animal Cell
Centrosome - A small body near the nucleus.
Cytoplasm - The jellylike material outside the cell nucleus where the organelle is located.
Golgi body - a flattened, layered, sac-like organelle that looks like a stack of pancakes - its near the nucleus.
Lysosome - Round organelles with a double membrane.
Nuclear membrane - the membrane that surrounds the nucleus.
Nucleolus - an organelle within the nucleus - it is where ribosomal RNA is produced.
Nucleus - Spherical body con tainting many organelles, including the nucleolus.
Ribosome - small organelles composed of RNA-rich cytoplasmic granules that are sites of protein synthesis.
Rough ER - A vast system of interconnected, membranous, infolded and convoluted sacks that are located in the cell's cytoplasm.
Smooth ER - A vast system of interconnected, membranous, infolded and convoluted tubes that are located in the cell's cytoplasm.
Vacuole - Fluid-filled, membrane-surrounded cavities inside a cell.
Plant Cell
ATP - ATP is short for adenosine triphosphate; it is a high-energy molecule used for energy storage by organisms.
Cell Membrane - The thin layer of protein and fat that surrounds the cell, but is inside the cell wall.
Cell Wall - A thick, rigid membrane that surrounds a plant cell.
Centrosome - A small body located near the nucleus - it has a dense center and radiating tubules.
Chlorophyll - Chlorophyll is magnesium based and it usually green.
Christae - The multiply-folded inner membrane of a cells mitochondrion that are finger-like projections.
Cytoplasm - The jellylike material outside the cell nucleus in which the organelles are located.
Golgi body - A flattened, layered, sac-like organelle that looks like a stack of pancakes and is located near the nucleus.
Granum - A stack of thylakoid disks within the chloroplast is called a granum.
Mitochondrion - Spherical to rod-shaped organelles with a double membrane.
Nuclear Membrane - The membrane that surrounds the nucleus.
Nucleolus - An organelle within the nucleus - it is where the ribosomal RNA is produced.
Nucleus - Spherical body containing many organelles, including the nucleolus.
Photosynthesis - A process in which plants convert sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into food energy, oxygen and water.
Ribosome - Small organelles composed of RNA-rich cytoplasmic granules that are sites of protein synthesis.
Stroma - Part of the chloroplasts in plant cells, located within the inner membrane of chloroplast between the grana.
Thylakoid disk - Thylakoid disks are disk-shaped membrane structures in chloroplasts that contain chlorophyll.
Vacuole - A large, membrane-bound space within a plant cell that is filled with fluid.
Cell Theory
- All living things are made of cells.
- Cells carry out functions needed to support life.
- Cells come only from other living cells.
Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells
- They have no nucleus
- Hereditary contained with cytoplast
- Examples: Archaea and Bacteria
Eukaryotic
- They have a nucleus
- Hereditary contained with the nucleus
- Examples: animals, protist, fungi and plants
