1. Cell Structure and Function

2. Prokaryotic Cells
No nucleus
No membrane-bound organelles

3. Eukaryotic Cells
Membrane bound organelles
Complex DNA

4. Organelles Nucleus – houses DNA, directs cell activity
Golgi – packages and secretes products like proteins and lipids
Mitochondria – place where energy is made ATP
RER – studded w/ ribosomes, protein synthesis
SER – lipid synthesis
Ribosomes – site of translation, protein synthesis
Cytoskeleton – maintains the shape of the cell
Lysosome - filled with digestive enzymes that break down lipids, proteins, old organelles

5. Organelles Large vacuoles – water storage
Cell Wall – rigid outer covering made of polysaccharides
Chloroplasts – site of photosynthesis
