  1. 7-2 Eukaryotic Cell Structure

  2. Organelles • All the tiny structures that are found inside a cell are called organelles • Organelle = means “little organs” • All Eukaryotic cells are divided into two parts: the nucleus and the cytoplasm • Cytoplasm is the jellylike portion outside of the nucleus

  3. Nucleus • Contains all the cells DNA, which provides all the codes needed to make proteins and other important molecules • Nuclear envelope= is the membrane that surrounds the nucleus, it controls what moves in and out of the nucleus

  4. Chromatin = is the granular material you can see in the nucleus, it is the DNA bound to protein • When a cell divides, chromatin, becomes chromosomes, which is the DNA in a threadlike form • Chromosomes are what gets passed from one generation of cells to the next • Nucleolus = is the small dense region in the nucleus where ribosomes are made.

  5. Other Organelles • Ribosomes = where proteins are assembled (made) • Endoplasmic Reticulum = where lipids for the cell membrane are made, contains the ribosomes where proteins and other materials are made • Smooth ER has no ribosomes • Rough ER has ribosomes

  6. Golgi apparatus = modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and other materials for storage or secretion out of the cell. • Lysosomes = digests and breaks down lipids (fats), carbohydrates, and proteins. They also get rid of “junk” that might otherwise clutter up the cell. • Vacuoles = store materials such as water, salts, proteins, and carbohydrates • Plant cells have a large central vacuole filled with water

  7. Mitochondria = make energyby converting chemical food energy into a form the cells can use, ATP • Chloroplasts = found in plants. Capture energy from the sun and convert it to chemical “food” energy, sugar. • The process is known as photosynthesis • Only found in plant cells • Cytoskeleton = network of proteins that help the cell maintain its shape and with movement • Centrioles = located near the nucleus and help the cell organize during division • only found in animal cells
