Cell Organelles Cytoplasm – matrix of the cell Membrane system – includes endoplasmic reticulum & golgi bodies Organelles – self-contained, membrane-bound structures such as nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplasts Vesicles – membrane-bound bubbles of liquid, including vacuoles, lysosomes, secretory and transport vesicles
Cytoplasm (cytosol) • Gel-like matrix • Mainly composed of water • Contains proteins & other substances • Supports cell organelles
Cell (plasma) membrane Surrounds cytoplasm and organelles and controls entry/exit of all substances (semi-permeable) • connects with membrane system within cell • phospholipidbilayer with proteins
Endoplasmic reticulum Tube-like network from nucleus to membrane • Smooth ER - synthesis of lipids, including steroids, and calcium storage in muscles • Rough ER – has ribosomes for protein synthesis • Transport of proteins etc • Large surface area for ribosome attachment
Golgi Bodies / apparatus Series of flattened hollow discs Packages proteins & lipids in pinched-off vesicles: • enzymes in lysosomes • add carbohydrate component to glycoproteins • mucus in goblet cells Allows transport of materials
Vacuole • Cell sap - concentrated solution of sugars, salt and suspended proteins • Store • waste or • raw materials used in synthesis of proteins • Controls turgidity (how full or limp the cell is) • Plant cells usually have one very large vacuole, animal cells have a number of small vacuoles.
Lysosome • Small round vesicles in animal cells • Store digestive enzymes (digest food molecules, worn-out organelles, engulfed bacteria etc) • Membrane-bound to prevent digestion of cell contents
Nucleus Controls cell activities and contains genetic code • Contains chromosomes – lengths of DNA • Enclosed in nuclear envelope with pores • Matrix is nucleoplasm • Nucleolus makes ribosomes
Mitochondria Respiration – breaks down food releasing energy to convert ADP to ATP • Double membrane • Folded inner membrane for increased surface area • Rod shaped • Has its own DNA
Chloroplast Photosynthesis uses solar energy to synthesise energy rich food molecules • Plants & some other organisms • Green pigment Chlorophyll • Double membrane • Has its own DNA • Mainly around edge of cell
Cell wall Tough, rigid outer structure for support • Found in plants, algae & bacteria (not animals) • Made mainly of cellulose • Outside of cell membrane
Ribosomes • Tiny spherical organelles • If attached to endoplasmic reticulum forms rough ER (RER) • Protein synthesis (for cell use & secretion)
