Nucleus
The nucleus is the headquarter of the cell. It regulates all cell activity.
It consists of a nuclear envelope, (the outer membrane) and
nucleoplasm. The nucleoplasm is located in the nucleus and is
similar to the cytoplasm in the cell. In the nucleoplasm you can see
chromatin and the nucleolus.

appears as a

the nucleus.
Three types of

Nuclear Envelope
The nuclear envelope is a
double membrane with four
phospholipid layers (a double
bi-layer!). It has large pores
through which small
materials, like RNA, pass in
and out of the nucleus.

Golgi apparatus
The Golgi apparatus is a series of
smooth, stacked membranous
sacs. The Golgi apparatus
modifies proteins after they are
produced by the ribosomes
atached to RER.
It is also responsible for
packaging proteins for export.
These sacs of proteins are
squeezed off and drift off through
the cytoplasm. A vesicle from the
golgi apparatus can fuse with the
cell membrane and excrete the
contents out of the cell
(exocytosis).

Lysosome
Lysosomes are produced by the
golgi apparatus. They consist of a
single membrane surrounding
powerful digestive enzymes that
further break down food particles,
bacteria, and cellular debris.

Cell membrane
Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have a
cell membrane. Their main function is to
monitor what goes in and out of the cell.
The cell membrane is the thin nearly
invisible structure that surrounds the
cytoplasm of the cell and separates the cell
from neighboring cells or from the external
environment. It is a continuous
phsopholipid bilayer that completely
surrounds the cell.

Smooth endoplasmic
reticulum
The endoplasmic reticulum is a
series of double membranes
that fill the cytoplasm and loop
back and forth between the
cell membrane and the nucleus.
The function of the smooth
endoplasmic reticulum is to
transport lipids and
carbohydrates through the cell.
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
are different from
Rough endoplasmic reticulum
because smooth endoplasmic
reticulum have no ribsosomes.

Cytoplasm
The term cytoplasm refers to everything
between the cell membrane and the
nuclear envelope. It consists of primarily
of water and contains various
organelles.
Even though it is left out of many
photos, the cytoplasm, with its jelly-like
structure, helps to maintain the cell's
shape and anchors many organelles in
place.

Microtubles
Microtubules are often
used by cells to hold their
shape. Microtubules are
also the major component
of cilia and flagella. The
microfiliaments that are
one third the size of
microtubles, help the cell
to change or maintain its
shape.

Centrioles
Centrioles are only found in animal
cells and they assist chromosome
movement during cell division.
Most other cells do not contain
centrioles.

Cell Wall
Cell walls made of
cellulose are found in
plant cells. They are the
rigid structure found
surrounding the cell and
they provide support for
the plant.
Chloroplast
The Chloroplast is the site of photosynthesis.
It is here that plant (and Protist) cells trap the
energy of light and use it to manufacture food
sugars for the cell. Plastids are large
membranous organelles found in plants and
some protists but not in animals or fungi.
They can easily be seen through a light
microscope.
Chloroplasts represent one group of plastids
called chromoplasts (colored plastids). Many
plants contain other colored chromosplasts as
well, hence there are many very colorful
plants! The other class of plastid are called
leucoplasts (colorless plastids); they usually
store starch molecules.

Plant Cell
Plant cells when observed through
a microscope appear more defined
than animal cells. They have a
more square or hexagonal
appearance. This is due to the
cell wall present outside of the cell
membrane. Animal cells only
have a cell membrane. Another
difference between plant and
animal cells is that plant cells
dont have centrioles. A plant cell
has many chloroplasts and they
use them to make food from sun
light energy.
