Cell Wall • Rigid • Surrounds the cell membrane in SOME cells • Found in cells of PLANTS, FUNGI, and almost all BACTERIA • NOT FOUND IN ANIMAL CELLS!!!! • Provides structure and support to the cell
Ribosomes • Site of protein synthesis (where proteins are made) • Found throughout the cytoplasm and on the ER (Rough ER)
Cytoplasm • Clear, jelly-like fluid that comprises most of the cell; holds organelles • Mostly water • Most chemical reactions take place here
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) • Folded membrane, found in the cytoplasm • Transport (cell’s delivery system) • 1. smooth ER • 2. rough ER (has ribosomes on it)
Golgi apparatus • Found in the cytoplasm • Packaging structure
Vacuole • Space in a cell for temporary storage (food, water, enzymes, waste, etc.) • # of vacuoles differs between plant and animal cells. • PLANT cells have one large vacuole; ANIMAL cells have several smaller vacuoles.
Lysosome • To DIGEST excess or worn out cell parts, food particles, etc.
Mitochondria • Breaks down food molecules to release ENERGY • Site of cellular respiration (stored energy getting used) • “Mighty Mitochondria”
Chloroplast • Found ONLY in plants and some protists (green things) • Transforms light energy into usable chemical energy • MUST BE PRESENT FOR PHOTOSYNTHESIS TO OCCUR!!!
Chlorophyll • Green pigment found inside of the chloroplast • Traps sunlight for photosynthesis
3 things that cells use for movement: 1. Cilia (Cilium)- short, numerous hair-like projections from the cell membrane
Flagella (Flagellum): long, whip-like projections -1 or 2 (maximum) per cell -ex: sperm
Pseudopod- false foot -cytoplasm can stretch for movement
