1. Cell Organelles

2. A cell is like a factory. It has many machines inside to make it work correctly.
The “machines” in a cell are called organelles

3. Organelles perform functions to keep a cell healthy and alive.
They are similar to organs which perform functions to keep a body healthy and alive.

4. Nucleus-control center of the cell

5. Nuclear membrane – outer covering of the nucleus, protects the nucleus

6. The Nucleus contains chromosomes with DNA.
The DNA determines the cell’s activities.
The DNA determines an organism’s traits.

7. Cell membrane – outer covering of the cell
Jobs of membrane:
1. Protection
2. Selectively Permeable – Controls what goes in and out of cell.

8. Cytoplasm – jelly like liquid that holds all of the organelles

9. Mitochondria Supplies the cell with ATP energy
“Power House” of the cell.
Supplies the cell with ATP energy

10. Ribosome
Produces proteins

11. Vacuole – storage bins Stores water and waste materials

12. Pack and ship materials to other parts of the cell
Golgi Bodies
“Packing and Shipping”
Pack and ship materials to other parts of the cell

13. Endoplasmic Reticulum
“Intracellular Highway”
Transport tubes
Pathway of tubes that carry substances in the cell

14. Plant Cells

15. Plant cells have 3 parts that animal cells do not.
1. Cell wall
2. Chloroplast
3 Large Central Vacuole

16. Cell Wall Outer rigid protective layer of a plant cell
The cell wall is outside of the cell membrane

17. Chloroplast
Has chlorophyll
Performs
Photosynthesis
