Mitochondria • Transfers energy to ATP which powers most of the cell’s reactions • “Powerhouse” of the cell
Ribosomes • The site where proteins are made • Found of the rough E.R.
Endoplasmic Reticulum • Prepares proteins for export and synthesizes steroids
Rough ER makes proteins in ribosomes, they leave in vesicles and go to the Golgi apparatus
The Cytoskeleton • The system of microscopic protein fibers that supports the shape of a cell • Function in cell structure and movement
Golgi Apparatus • Processes and packages substances produced by the cell
Lysosome • A vesicle that digests molecules & old organelles
Chloroplast • Enables plants to make carbs from carbon dioxide and water
Cilia and Flagella • Hairlike structures that enable cell movement or move substances across a cell’s surface
Examples: • Respiratory tract • Bacteria cell Cilia Flagella
Features unique to plant cells • Cell walls • Plastids • Central vacuoles
Central Vacuole • When filled with water; keeps plant cells rigid Also stores waste, enzymes, pigments, toxins etc.
Plastids-contain their own DNA • Include chloroplasts, chromoplasts, and leucoplasts
