cell organelles m Rafaela C., Arissa H., Mariana D., Sandra R.
nucleus
largest organelle. In some cells, there could be more than 1 nucleus.
has double membrane and contains most of the chromosomes that make up DNA
endoplasmic reticulum
rough E.R.
contains ribosomes
protein synthesis occurs here!
smooth E.R.
site of lipid production
golgi apparatus
It is a stack of membranes in charge of packaging and delivering proteins.
lysosomes
Carries digestive enzymes for breaking down:
dead cell parts
engulfed bacteria
viruses
large molecules for recycling
mitochondrion
Power house of the cell
Aerobic respiration happens there.
ribosomes
Proteins synthesized for use within the cell.
chloroplasts
They're specialized in plant organelles. They're responsible for photosynthesis.
microtubules & centrioles
Centrioles are bundles of microtubes in animal cells. These microtubes separate chromosomes in cell division and make up cilia and flagella.
vacuoles & vesicles
Animal cells sometimes have small vacuoles for digestion
Unicellular organisms have contractile vacuoles for expelling water
Plant cells have large vacuoles that hold water and food
Vesicles are small lipid sacs used for transport
