1. Cell Organelles Structures within a cell that are used to live, grow and reproduce.

2. Cell Membrane Location - surrounding the cell. ▪ the outermost membrane in animal cells but inside of the cell wall in plant cells Description - a fluid mosaic of a phospholipid bilayer, with proteins, and other macromolecule strands embedded in it or attached to it Function - controls the movement of substances into and out of the cell

3. Cell Membrane

5. Cell Wall Location - the outermost layer of some cells (especially plant cells but never animal cells) Description - thick, rigid, composed of cellulose and lignin ▪ not a complete wall – looks more like a scaffold around the cell Function - protection ▪ support ▪ gives cell shape.

6. Cell Wall

7. Cilia Location - extensions of the outer surface of the cell membrane of any cell that moves itself, or needs to move substances outside itself. These are NOT found on all cells Description - long, thin Function - movement of free swimming protista (like paramecium) ▪ movement of extracellular material (like the cilia lining your tracheal cells)

8. Cilia The small “hairy” structures on the The small “hairy” structures on the outside of the Paramecium are cilia Internal structure of cilia and Internal structure of cilia and flagella (9+2 arrangement) flagella (9+2 arrangement)

9. Flagellum Location - extensions of the outer surface of the cell membrane of motile (movable) cells, like sperm or Euglena (protist) Description - longer than cilia Function - movement of the swimming cell

10. Flagellum

11. Plastids Location - throughout plant cells Description - (see chloroplast as an example) Function - Leucoplasts – store starch (e.g. in potato cells) - Chromoplasts store coloured pigments in colourful fruit cells (like tomato) - Chromoplasts store coloured pigments in colourful fruit cells (like tomato)

12. Leucoplasts Leucoplasts are the whitish, circular structures in the cell shown here.

13. Chromoplasts Red, circular structures in this diagram are chromoplasts found in a red pepper cell.

14. Cytoskeleton Location – found beneath the cell membrane and branching throughout the cytoplasm. Location – found beneath the cell membrane and branching throughout the cytoplasm. Description – Long thin tubes or fibres Description – Long thin tubes or fibres Function – provides support to animal cells and aids in moving material throughout the cell. Function – provides support to animal cells and aids in moving material throughout the cell.

15. Centrioles Location - two at 90 o to each other form the centrosome used in mitosis Description - not membrane bound, made of small tubules Function - as a centrosome organize the spindle fibres used in mitosis. they “anchor” and “organize” the formation of cilia and flagella

16. Centrioles

17. Nucleus LOCATION - usually in the center of the cell DESCRIPTION - membrane bound: a double phospholipid bilayer membrane makes up the outer surface▪ pores in membrane▪ outer membrane continuous with the endoplasmic reticulum FUNCTION - control center of cell, ie. contains DNA which acts as a template for the manufacture of protein.

18. Nucleus Close up of nucleus → Nucleus within cell ↓

19. Chromatin Location - in the nucleus Description - unwound DNA ▪ “chromatin is thin” (coiled DNA molecules are called chromosomes) Function - template for the production of protein

20. Chromatin

21. Nucleolus Location – found inside the nucleus Description – small, spherical ▪ not membrane bound ▪composed of protein and nucleic acids Function – important in the formation of ribosomes

22. Endoplasmic Reticulum Location - a network throughout the cytoplasm – attached to (or continuous with) the outer nuclear membrane Location - a network throughout the cytoplasm – attached to (or continuous with) the outer nuclear membrane Description - membrane bound: channels or canals which are composed of a single membrane layer ▪ rough ER has ribosomes attached ▪ smooth does not ▪ rough ER has ribosomes attached ▪ smooth does not Function - rough: the ribosomes attached produce proteins destined for export from the cell. The inside of the E.R. modifies these proteins and then puts them into vesicles to send to the Golgi - smooth: manufacture lipids (fats) - smooth: manufacture lipids (fats)

23. Endoplasmic Reticulum

24. This picture shows how the endoplasmic reticulum works with the Golgi.

25. Ribosome Location - on the surface of the E.R. (rough E.R.) or free throughout the cytoplasm Description - not membrane bound ▪ ▪ 2 subunits (large and small) Function - site of protein synthesis

26. Ribosome This diagram shows the two subunits (large and small) of a ribosome.

27. Ribosome Ribosomes can be found on the endoplasmic reticulum, or free-floating in the cytoplasm.

28. Golgi Body (Complex) Location - between the E.R. and the cell (outer) membrane Description - membrane bound: a single membrane layer outlining several stacked structures ▪ looks like a slightly curved stack of pancakes Function - modifies proteins destined for secretion by adding other molecules to them ▪ sends these proteins to the cell membrane in secretory vesicles

29. Golgi Body (Complex) 

30. Lysosome Location - pinch off of the golgi apparatus but scattered throughout the cytoplasm Description - membrane bound: by a membrane layer ▪ full of enzymes Function - 3 functions all related to the enzymes they contain; 1. digest the contents of a dead cell from the inside out 1. digest the contents of a dead cell from the inside out 2. digest food particles engulfed by cell (by endocytosis) 3. digest invaders like bacteria and viruses engulfed by white blood cells

31. Lysosome

32. Mitochondrion Location - scattered throughout the cytoplasm Description - membrane bound: have a double membrane layer Have their own DNA Function - the different parts are surfaces and spaces where the many steps of cellular respiration occur (results in the production of cellular energy molecules called ATP (adenosine triphosphate))

33. Mitochondrion

34. Mitochondrion

35. Chloroplast Location - only in photosynthesizing cells, found in the cytoplasm ▪ more on the sides of cells toward the direction of light Description - membrane bound by a double membrane layer – contain chlorophyll – have their own DNA. Have stacks of membranes call thylakoids Function – where photosynthesis occurs Function – where photosynthesis occurs

36. Chloroplast

37. Vacuole Location - usually one large central one in plant cells, but many scattered throughout in animal cells Description - membrane bound by a single membrane layer ▪ contain water and other dissolved substances Function - temporary storage of food, water, and waste
