Study Notes
Cellular Anatomy - Organelles
- Nucleus: Found in the nuclear membrane, it controls cell reproduction and contains DNA, the hereditary material.
- Nuclear Envelope: Membrane surrounding the nucleus, containing nuclear pores.
- Nucleolus: Located inside the nucleus, manufactures ribosomes.
- Ribosomes: Produce proteins; located in the cytoplasm or rough endoplasmic reticulum.
-
Endoplasmic Reticulum: Connects the nuclear membrane to the cell membrane; used for cellular transport.
- Rough ER: Processes proteins.
- Smooth ER: Processes lipids and carbohydrates.
- Mitochondria: Power source of the cell.
- Chloroplasts: Found in plant cells; site of photosynthesis.
- Golgi Apparatus: Packages and secretes cellular products.
- Lysosomes: Enzyme-coated organelles for cellular digestion.
- Chromatin: Strands of genetic material that form chromosomes prior to cellular reproduction.
- Vacuole: Primary function is storage; plants have one large central vacuole used to store water.
- Cell Membrane: Regulates what enters and exits a cell.
- Cell Wall: Provides structure and support; plant cells have cell walls, animal cells do not.
Cellular Anatomy - Other Structures
- Cytoplasm: Everything between the cell nucleus and membrane.
- Centrioles: T-shaped or barrel-shaped structures used in cell division. Animal cells contain centrioles, but plants contain similar structures called centrosomes.
- Fungi and Bacteria: Both have cell walls, but are structurally different from each other.
