Cell Membrane • Found in all cells • Controls or regulates what goes in and out of the cell. Outermost living layer of the cell. • The “Gate Keeper”
Cell Wall • Found in plants and some bacteria. • Outermost non-living layer of the cell. • Rigid layer.
Nucleus • Found in eukaryotes • Control & information center of the cell. • “The Brain”
Cytoplasm • Found in all cells • Jelly-like substance found inside the cell membrane. • Allows cell parts to move more freely.
Ribosome • Found in all cells • Makes all the proteins produced by the cell.
Endoplasmic Reticulum • Found in eukaryotes. • Transports materials throughout the cell. • “Highway”
2 kinds of E.R. • Smooth E.R.- Does not have ribosomes. • Rough E.R.-Has ribosomes studded on it and produces proteins.
Mitochondria • Converts glucose (sugar) into usable energy. The site of cellular respiration. • “Power House”
Chloroplast • Found in plant cells & some bacteria. • Puts CO2 and H2O together (uses energy from the sun) to make glucose. *Photosynthesis*
Chromosomes (DNA) • DNA is found in all cells • Blueprint or master plan of the cell. Structures in the nucleus that contain the genetic information (DNA).
Golgi Complex • Produce and release products and are especially common in tissues which secrete products. ( Glands ) • “Post Office”
Lysosome • Digestive sac. Like the stomach of the cell. • “Little Stomach”
Vacuole • Storage sacs ( help in digestion, waste and food storage ). Help to transport materials throughout the cell. • “the closet”
Vacuole Note: • Plant cells have an extra large water vacuole.
If you need more space, continue your notes onto the bottom of p. 17 and 18.
Nucleolus • Small body within the nucleus that makes ribosomal rna.
Centrioles • Cylinder shaped structures which help separate chromosomes during cell division.
Microtubules • Hollow tube-like proteins • Used to build structure(s) inside the cell.
Nucleoplasm • Jelly-like substance found inside the Nucleus.
