Cell Organelles
nucleus
control center for the cell,
contains nearly all the cell's DNA and with it the instructions for making protiens,
found in animal and plant cells
chromatin
strands of DNA located in the nucleus,
condenses to form chromosomes when cells divide,
found in animal plant and bacterial cells
nuclear envelope
double layered membrane, separates the nucleus from the cytoplasm, found in animals and plant cells
nucleolus
prominent organelle in the center of the nucleus, responsible for making ribosomes, found in animal and plant cells
cytoplasm
clear, gelatinous fluid in cells; suspends organelles, site of many chemical reactions; found in animal, plant, and bacterial cells
ribosomes
non-membrane bound organelle composed of RNA and proteins; responsible for making protein; found in animal, plant, and bacterial cells
endoplasmic reticulum
estensive network of membranes with accordion folds that attaches to the nuclear membrane; site of cellular reactions and responsible for trasporting materials within the cell
rough ER
studded with ribosomes, involved in the synthesis of protein
smooth ER
no ribosomes, lipid components of cell membrane made here, brakes down waste and poison
golgi apparatus
series of flattened membrane-bound sacs arranged like a stack of pancakes, modifies materials then packages and secretes them, found in animal and plant cells
