Cell Organelles

?
Nucleus structure
Nuclear envelope (double membrane), contains pores, contains chromatin and nucleolus
1 of 13
Nucleus function
Pore allow substances (RNA) to move between the nucleus and cytoplasm. The nucleolus makes ribosomes
2 of 13
Lysosome structure
Round organelle, surrounded by membrane
3 of 13
Lysosome function
Contains digestive enzymes, break down worn out/old cells
4 of 13
Vesicle structure
Fluid filled sac, surrounded by a membrane
5 of 13
Vesicle function
Transports substances in and out of cells. Some are formed in the golgi body or endoplasmic reticulum
6 of 13
Ribosome structure
Small, floats free in the cytoplams, attaches to the rough endoplasmic reticulum
7 of 13
Ribosome function
Site of protein synthesis
8 of 13
sER and rER structure
System of membranes, rER covered in ribosomes
9 of 13
sER and rER function
sER synthesises and processes lipids, rER folds and processes proteins that have been made at the ribosomes
10 of 13
Golgi apparatus structure
Flattened sacs, vesicles often seen at the edges
11 of 13
Golgi apparatus function
Processes and packages new lipids and proteins. Makes lysosomes
12 of 13
Centriole structure
Hollow cylinders, contain ring of microtubules
