Cell (plasma) Membrane
regulates movement of substances into and out of cells. Made of lipids and proteins
1 of 14
Cell Wall
supports plant cells made of cellulose
2 of 14
Nucleus
controls cells activities, contains DNA which has instructions to make proteins. Contains nucleolus which makes ribosomes. Surrounded by nuclear envelope + pores
3 of 14
Lysosome
contains digestive enzymes to digest invading cells or break down worn out components
4 of 14
Ribosome
Where proteins are made. Made of proteins and rRNA
5 of 14
Rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER)
Folds and processes proteins made at ribosomes on its surface.
6 of 14
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER)
synthesises and processes lipids
7 of 14
Vesicle
Transports substances in and out of cell via cell membrane or between organelles
8 of 14
Golgi apparatus
processes and packages new lipids and proteins and makes lysosomes
9 of 14
Mitochondrion
Site of aerobic respiration where ATP is produced. Double membrane, inner one form cristae with matrix inside.
10 of 14
Chloroplast
Site where photosynthesis takes place, some parts happen in grand and others in stroma. Double membrane + membrane inside called Thylakoid membranes
11 of 14
Centrole
Involved with separation of chromosomes during cell division. Made of microtubules
12 of 14
Cilia
The Mircrotubles allow cilia to move, used to move substances along cell surface found on the surface membrane.
13 of 14
Flagellum
on Eukaryotic cells. The microtubules contract to allow movement propel cells forward
