cell organelles Flashcards
1=function, 2=animal or plant, 3=type of cell its numerous in
Chloroplast
Converts energy from sun into energy in sugar, plant cells, leaf cells, site of photosynthesis
Lysosomes
Breaks down dead stuff, animal cells, stomach/mouth cells, site of cellular digestion
Mitochondria
Breaks down food to release energy as ATP, both, muscle/lung cells, site of cellular respiration
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Transport proteins, both
Vacuole
Storage, both (larger in plants), plant cells
Golgi Apparatus
Assembles and ships proteins where they are needed, both
Nucleus
Houses DNA (control center), both
Ribosome
Makes proteins, both, muscle cells
Cell Wall
Hold cell together/give cell shape, plant cells, stem cells
What organelles are responsible for protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells?
Nucleus and Ribosome
What organelles are responsible for structural support?
Microtubules and Cytoskeleton
Which organelles are responsible for clean up and storage?
Lysosomes are responsible for cleanup and vacuole is responsible for storage
