Main Slide

QUIT

Plasma Membrane Composed of fluid-

like phospholipid bilayer, proteins, cholesterol and glycoproteins.

Acts as a cell boundary

Allows nutrients to enter the cell, while waste exits

Cell Membrane

QUIT

Liquid-like material outside Nucleus

Made up of cytosol (or gluclose, CO2, and O2, etc.)

Site for metabolic activity

Houses all other cell organelles

Cytoplasm

QUIT

The ‘Control Center“’

Contains genetic material for the cell (DNA/Chromo-somes)

Control cellular activity via genes

Nucleus

QUIT

Organelle where protein synthesis takes place

Some ribosomes are housed in the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

Others float freely in the cytoplasm

Ribosome

QUIT

Interconnecting, flattened, tubular tunnels

Contains ribosomes

Involved in protein synthesis

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

QUIT

More interconnecting, flattened, tubular tunnels

Does not contain Ribosomes (thus giving it a smooth appearance)

Involved in lipid synthesis

Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum

QUIT

Composed of small membranous sacs

Packaging center for molecules

Involved in carbohydrate synthesis

Golgi Apparatus

QUIT

Membrane-bound sacs of enzymes

Contains hydrolytic enzymes for intracellular digestion

Break down old parts of the cell for reuse.

Lysosome

QUIT

The “Power House” of the cell

Primary energy source for the cell

Produces ATP Watch this video o

n ATP production!

Mitochondria
