Cell Structure: EUKARYOTIC (Animal & Plant)
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| centrioles | Structure: a pair of hollow cylinders ANIMAL CELLS Function: helps move chromosomes during cell division |
| Rough endoplasmic reticulum | Structure: network of internal membranes on surface, with ribosomes Function: helps make proteins EUKARYOTIC |
| Smooth endoplasmic reticulum | Structure: network of internal membranes on surface, without ribosomes on surface Function: makes lipids EUKARYOTIC |
| Golgi apparatus / Golgi body | Structure: stacks of flattened membrane sacs Function: modifies & packages proteins EUKARYOTIC |
| lysosome | Structure: membrane sac with digestive enzymes Function: digests food & waste / recycles EUKARYOTIC |
| mitochondria | Structure: double membrane structure EUKARYOTIC Function: converts nutrients to energy / makes ATP through cellular respiration / “Powerhouse” of the cell |
| nuclear membrane | Structure: membrane surrounding nucleus Function: protects nucleus EUKARYOTIC |
| nucleolus | Structure: small circular structure in nucleus Function: makes ribosomes EUKARYOTIC |
| nucleus | Structure: large circular structure in the cell EUKARYOTIC Function: contains DNA, regulates gene expression |
| peroxisomes | Structure: membrane sac with enzymes (smaller than lysosomes) Function: metabolizes waste EUKARYOTIC |
| vacuole | Structure: membrane sac EUKARYOTIC Function: storage for water, salts, carbs, proteins |
| vesicles | Structure: membrane sac EUKARYOTIC Function: transports materials |
