    ORGANELLE LOCATION DESCRIPTION FUNCTION

    cell wall plant, fungi and bacteria but *outer layer *support (grow tall)
    not animal *rigid, strong, stiff *protection
    *made of cellulose *allows H2O, O2, CO2 to pass into and out of cell
    cell membrane both plant/animal *plant - inside cell wall *support
    All cells *animal - outer layer; cholesterol *protection
    *selectively permeable *controls movement of materials in/out of cell
    *barrier between cell and its environment
    *maintains homeostasis

    Nucleus both plant/animal *large, oval generally *controls cell activities


    nucleus is absent in . *key organelle which has the genetic material and is
    prokaryotic cells involved in multiplication of cell, growth and maintenance
    of cell.
    nucleolus All cells except prokaryotes * Make ribosomes, contains building blocks or mRNA,
    *Found inside cell’s nucleus tRNA, rRNA
    * may have more than one
    *disappears during cell division
    nuclear membrane both plant/animal *surrounds nucleus *Controls movement of materials in/out of nucleus
    *selectively permeable
    Centrioles Animal cells *paired structures near the nucleus *stparate chromosome pairs during mitosis
    *made of cylinder of microtubule pairs
    cytoplasm both plant/animal *clear, thick, jellylike material *supports /protects cell organelles
    All cells (sytosol)
    * organelles found inside cell
    membrane
    *contains cytoskelon fibers
    endoplasmic both plant/animal *network of tubes or membranes *carries materials through cell
    reticulum (E.R.)
    Smooth No ribosomes
    Rough Attached ribosome Synthesis of fats/lipids
    Ribosomes synthesis proteins for export
    ribosome both plant/animal *small bodies free or attached to E.R. *synthesizes proteins
    *made of rRNA and protein
    Mitochondria both plant/animal *bean-shaped *breaks down sugar molecules into energy
    *inner membranes *site of aerobic cellular respiration
    Double membrane outer smooth inner
    folded into cristae
    Golgi/golgi bodies / both plant/animal except These are the vacuoles or sac like * to modify and package proteins for export
    golgi apparatus Prokaryotes structures. They occupy a considerable *have cis and trans face
    amount of cytoplasm.
    *stacks of flattened sacs
    vacuole plant - few/large *fluid-filled sacs * Vacuoles are pouches in the cell that store materials such
    animal - small as water, salts, proteins, and carbohydrates, waste products
    and toxic waste..
    *store food, water, waste (plants need to store large amounts
    of food)
    Vesicles A lot of small bubble sacs in These are small-sized sac like *These help in storage and release of substances as required
    animals, large sac in the structures. They are of different types by the cell. For example lysosomes help in cell digestion
    middle of plant cells lysosomes, peroxisomes. when cell dies. Vacuoles function is to store water.
    lysosome plant - uncommon *small, round, with a membrane *breaks down larger food molecules into smaller molecules
    animal - common *digests old cell parts
    chloroplast plant, not animal *green, oval usually containing *uses energy from sun to make food for the plant
    chlorophyll (green pigment) (photosynthesis)
    Cilia Animal cells and protozoa Have a 9-2 arrangement of Movement of cell
    microtubules
    *short but numerous
    flagellum Bacteria cells and protozoan *Have a 9-2 arrangement of movement
    Sex cells microtubules
    *long but few in number
    Micro-tubules = All cells *micro-tubules provide structural * the cell has a fixed structure and does not collapse
    cytoskeleton strength. * form the cyto-skeleton
    * These are filamentous extensions *moves organelles within the cell
    in cytoplasm.
