Cell Organelles
Cell/Plasma Membrane ALL cells have a cell membrane It is the layer that surrounds the cell and controls what goes in and out Bacteria (Prokaryotic Cell)

Cell Wall Cell wall is the outer layer that helps maintain structure and water pressure inside the cell In bacteria, it serves as extra protection Bacteria (Prokaryotic Cell)

Cytoplasm Gel-like material that fills the inside of the cell and holds all organelles It is in ALL cells Bacteria (Prokaryotic Cell)

Nucleus The nucleus is where DNA is located in EUKARYOTIC cells. The nucleus is surrounded by the nuclear membrane. Inside of the nucleus, there is a structure called the nucleolus - this is where the ribosomes are made.

DNA DNA is the blueprint for all living things. It tells the cell how to function and codes for all of the proteins. It is in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells It is in the cytoplasm of prokaryotic cells Bacteria (Prokaryotic Cell)

Endoplasmic Reticulum Rough ER & Smooth ER - Both help with transporting proteins. Rough ER - has ribosomes attached Smooth ER - has NO ribosomes

Ribosomes This is where proteins are made (synthesized) Remember DNA--> RNA --> Protein They are in ALL cells Bacteria (Prokaryotic Cell)

Mitochondria It is the powerhouse of the cell. It creates ATP (energy) the cell needs to function.

Lysosome They are responsible for digesting/breaking down materials in the cell. In ANIMAL cells only

Large Vacuole The vacuole is a large organelle used for storage - mainly water These are in PLANT cells only

Chloroplast This is where photosynthesis takes place in PLANT cells only. Photosynthesis is the process where plants create their own food/energy.

Golgi Apparatus/Golgi Bodies This is where proteins are packaged and sent out of the cell.

Cilia & Flagella The cilia are hair-like structures. The flagella are tail-like structures. Both assist in cell movement for animal cells and prokaryotic cells. Prokaryotic Cell
