LYSOSOMES

  • Suicide sac
  • Digest macromolecules

NUCLEUS

  • BrIn of the cell
  • Stores genetic information

CELL MEMBRANE

  • Maintains the integrity of the cell
  • Also known as the plasma membrane
  • Controls what enters and exits the cell

Mitochondria

  • Powerhouse of the cell
  • Carries out cellular respiration
  • Makes ATP

GOLGI APPARTUS

  • Packages proteins
  • Secretes modified cell products

SMOOTH ER

  • Syntheses proteins
  • Lacks ribosomes

ROUGH ER

  • Makes proteins
  • Has ribosomes

RIBOSOMES

  • Makes proteins
  • Located on the rough ER and all throughout the cell

VACUOLE

  • Holds water
  • Storage sac
  • In the cytoplasm

VESICLE

  • Transports things that are not water
  • Storage

MICROTUBULE

  • Cylinders of proteins
  • In the flagella and cilia

MICROFILAMENTS

  • Cytoskeleton
  • Maintains shape

NUCLEAR MEMBRANE

  • Maintains integrity of the nucleus
  • Double membranes with pores

CHROMATIN

  • DNA inside of nucleus
  • Diffuses threads containing DNA and proteins

CENTRIOLE

  • Forms spindles
  • Made of microtubules

FLAGELLA

  • Propels sperm
  • Twice as long as the cell

CILIA

  • Sweeps mucus

NUCLEOUS

  • Makes subunits of ribosomes
  • In the center of the nucleus

PEROXISOME

  • Detoxifies drugs
  • Also in the cytoplasm
