organelles Flashcards
mitochondria
the powerhouse of the cell and produces ATP
golgi body
packages products so they are ready for transport.
nucleus
control centre of the cell and contains dna
Rough ER
contains ribosomes and makes proteins
Smooth ER
synthesises lipids and hormones
chloroplast
produces energy through photosynthesis
cell wall
gives structure to the cell and protects it.
large vacuole
waste disposal and storage
prokaryotic cell
simple cell that is smaller than eukaryotic cells
eukaryotic cell
has lots of organelles.
organelle
membrane-bound organelles that reside in cells.
plant vs animal cells
plant cell- have cell wall, a large vacuole and chloroplast.
animal cell- have centrosome and lysosome, but they dont have cell walls, large vacuoles or chloroplast.
nucleolus
a non membrane bound organelle thats inside the nucleus that makes RNA.
ribosomes
makes proteins
lysosome
digests cellular material
