ORGANELLES ORGANIZED
CELL WALL Location:
Plant Prokaryote
Description: Rigid outer layer of
cell made of cellulose
Function: Support Protection
CELL MEMBRANE Location:
Plant Animal Prokaryote
Description: Fluid mosaic lipid bi-
layer Semi-permeable
Function: Control movement in
and out of cell Barrier from outside
environment
NUCLEUS Location:
Plant Animal
Description: Large, oval shape Near center
Function: Controls the cell’s
genetic information (DNA, RNA)
DNA Location:
Plant Animal Prokaryote
Description: Inside nucleus
(plant, animal) Double helix of
nucleic acids
Function: Codes for genetic
information and proteins
CYTOPLASM Location:
Plant Animal Prokaryote
Description: Clear, thick jelly-like
material
Function: Support cellular
organelles Move nutrients in cell
ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM (ER) Location:
Plant Animal
Description: Network of folded tubes
or membranes Function:
Modify and package materials to be used within the cell
Rough ER: Site for protein synthesis
RIBOSOME Location:
Plant Animal Prokaryote
Description: Small spheres Floating free or
attached to Rough ER
Function: Translates RNA into
proteins
MITOCHONDRIA Location:
Plant Animal
Description: Bean-shaped
organelle with folded inner membranes
Function: Breakdown food
molecules into energy for cell
VACUOLE Location:
Plant Animal
Description: Fluid-filled sacs Large in plants
Function: Stores waste, food,
water for later use
LYSOSOME Location:
Animal Description:
Small, round compartment that holds digestive enzymes
Function: Breakdown large food
particles Digest old cell parts
GOLGI BODY Location:
Plant Animal
Description: Flattened sacs (like a
stack of pancakes)
Function: Modifies lipids &
proteins Package material to
send outside of the cell
CILIA/FLAGELLA Location:
Animal Prokaryote
Description: Hair-like projections
(cilia) Tail or whip (flagella)
Function: Move the cell and
move materials around outside of cell (cilia)
Move the cell (flagella)
CHLOROPLAST Location:
Plant Description:
Green ovals containing chlorophyll
Function: Use energy from the
sun to make food for the plant (photosynthesis)
