made of proteins and DNA that control the cell's activity, contains chromatin, contains a nucleolus, makes ribosomes
Nucleus
1 of 9
site where proteins are made, attached to the rough ER
ribosomes
2 of 9
folds proteins, processes proteins
rough endoplasmic reticulum
3 of 9
synthesises lipids, processes lipids
smooth endoplasmic reticulum
4 of 9
regulates the movement in and out of the cell, contains receptor molecules that allow it to respond to hormones
plasma membrane
5 of 9
increases the surface area of the plasma membrane, involved in processes like absorption
microvilli
6 of 9
found in large numbers in cells that require a lot of energy, have a double membrane (inside matrix, outer layer is folded to form structures called cristae) site of all aerobic respiration, contains enzymes involved in respiration
mitochondrion
7 of 9
processes new lipids and proteins, makes lysosomes, packages new lipids and proteins
golgi apparatus
8 of 9
