Animal Cell Structure
IncorrectAlthough the cytoplasm is an important part of the cell, it is not considered an organelle.Cell MembraneThe cell membrane as a semi-permeable barrier, that allows only some particles to pass throughThe cell membrane is responsible for keeping in molecules required in high concentrationThe cell membrane consists of a phospholipid bi-layer
NucleusHouses most of the DNA and RNA in the cellThe nucleus controls the activity of the cellThe nucleus synthesizes ribosomes
NucleolusThe center of the nucleus which synthesizes ribosomesThe nucleolus is the darker and more dense part of the nucleusThe nucleolus is housed within the nuclear envelope
Vacuole
Vacuoles house and dispose of molecules typically associated with waste productsEnzymes are housed within each vacuoleThe vacuole also plays a role in housing potentially harmful substancesLysosomeLysosomes contain enzymes for digesting materialsThese enzymes are responsible for breaking down and recycling materialsLysosomes are acidic
RibosomeRibosomes are responsible for protein synthesis in the cellRibosomes are found in large numbers in the cellThe rough ER houses ribosomes, and some ribosomes are suspended freely in the cytoplasm
Mitochondria
The mitochondria is known as the power house of the cell for its role in the production of ATPMitochondria operate independentlyThe mitochondria is a spherical or rod shaped organelleGolgi ComplexGolgi bodies are flattened packs of membrane sacksTheir role is in packaging and modifying moleculesThe smaller units that are formed and utilized are known as vesicles
Endoplasmic ReticulumThe endoplasmic reticulum transports molecules to their destinationThe ER bound with ribosomes is known as the rough ERThe ER not bound with ribosomes is known as the smooth ER
Which organelle is responsible for producing ATP?A. CytoplasmB. MitochondriaC. Nucleus
