• Endoplasmic Reticulum (E.R.): Smooth and rough.• Golgi Apparatus• Nucleus with chromosomes

Cell Organelles

• Mitochondria (plants and

animals)• Chloroplasts (plants only)• Vacuoles (plants and animals)• Lysosomes• Ribosomes

Note: Refer to the cell pictures in your

“Discovery of Cells” reading packet.

Allows the movement of materials, like PROTEINS, from one side of the cell to the other.

Acts as the “highway” for the movement of proteins throughout the cell.

Endoplasmic Reticulum

Two Types of ER: Smooth ER with no

ribosomes Rough ER has ribosomes

associated with it

E.R.

Moves proteins throughout the

cell Packaging and distributing

proteins and other materials for the cell

Golgi Apparatus, the ‘Post Office’ of the cell

Golgi Apparatus

Surrounded by the nuclear

envelope Location of the chromsomes Stores the hereditary

information or blueprint for life Nucleic Acids in the form of DNA

are found in the nucleus of the eukaryotic cell

Nucleus

Location for the

manufacture of proteins Found on ER and called

Rough ER (R for Rough ER) Also found in the cytoplasm

of cells

Ribosomes

Energy production and storage Organelle where ATP is made

using the Krebs cycle Contain their own DNA Have a double walled

membrane

Mitochondria

Found only in plants Location of photosynthesis Pigment (lipid) called

chlorophyll

Chloroplasts

Storage and removal of wastes from

the cell Storage of water for plants, called

central vacuole Found in plants and animals Much larger in plants 1 vacuole in plant cells, several in

animal cells

Vacuoles

Location of enzymes or lipids to

make chemical reactions go faster

Break down proteins, nucleic acids and carbohydrates

Digest and recycle cell’s used material

Lysosomes
