Cell Organelles: Structure & Function
Organelle Function
Cell Wall (PLANTS) - Provides support for plant cell
Chloroplast (PLANTS) - Photosynthesis
- Converts energy from the sun
into stored energy for cell
Lysosome (ANIMALS) - Breaks down and recycles old
[In plants, vacuoles = lysosome] organelles
Centrioles (ANIMALS) - Involved in cell division
, 3
Cilia and Flagella (ANIMALS) - Enable cell movement
- Cilia = wave-like motion
- Flagella = whip-like motion
Cell membrane (BOTH) - Surrounds, protects, and controls the
flow of material into & out of cell
Cytoplasm/Cytosol (BOTH) - Fluid that holds all organelles
Nucleus (BOTH) - Controls all cellular activity
, 4
Nucleolus (BOTH) - Contains info (RNA) for producing
ribosomes
Nuclear membrane/Nuclear Envelope - Protects DNA within nucleus
(BOTH)
Nuclear pores (BOTH) - Openings within nuclear membrane
