Where proteins are made
cell (plasma) membrane
Structures involved in cell division in animal cells only
mitochandria
convert chemical energy into compounds
chloroplast
capture energy from sunlight and convert it, photosynthesis
centriole
helps animal cells organize cell division
cell wall
provides structure to cell
animal vacuole cell
many small ones
plant vacuoles
one big one
vacuole
stores material
cytoplasm
liquid inside cell, allows for transport inside cell
nucleus
“control center” of cell, contains nearly all of cells dna
nuclear envelope
dotted with nuclear pores
