Organelles

ORGANELLES 

In all if a cell's organelles didnt work together it would be able to function. For example if the cells mitochondria stoped working the cell wouldnt be able to store energy anymore.


 * Terms to Know: **
 * __Cell Membrane__: Protects the cell, creates a barrier between the inside and outside of the cell, controls what enters and exits the cell.
 * **Are found in all cells **
 * __Cell Wall__: Structure made up of cellulose, is hard and rigid, and found outside the cell membrane.
 * **Are only found in plant cells **
 * __Centrioles__: Help to organize cell division.
 * **Are only found in animal cells **
 * __Chloroplasts__: Capture the energy in sunlight and convert it into chemical energy in a process called photosynthesis.
 * **Are only found in plant cells **


 * __Cilia__: Small, hair-like projections that provide movement for the cell.
 * __Chromatin__: Granular material that you can see in the nucleus. It consists of DNA bound to protein.
 * __Chromosomes__:Condensed form of chromatin. They are thread-like and contain information that is passed on from one generation of cells to the next.
 * __Cytoplasm__: The portion of an eukaryote cell that is outside the nucleus, contains the organelles.
 * **Are found in all cells **
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">__Cytoskeleton__: A network of protein filaments that helps the cell to maintain its shape. It is also involved in movement.


 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">__Endoplasmic Reticulum__: The site where lipid components of the cell membrane are assembled, along with proteins and other materials that are exported from the cell.
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">__//Rough ER//__: Found near the nucleus, makes proteins, and is made up of ribosomes.
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">__//Smooth ER//__: Makes the cell membrane, detoxifies drugs, has many enzymes, and has no ribosomes.
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">__Flagella__: Whip-like tail that provides movement for the cell (usually only one or few flagellum present).
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">__Golgi Apparatus__: An organelle that modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and other materials from the endoplasmic reticulum for storage in the cell or a section outside the cell.
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">__Lysosomes__: Small organelles that breakdown lipids, carbs, and proteins to be used by the cell.
 * **<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">Are only found in animal cells **
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">__Mitochondria__: Organellethat converts the chemical energy stored in food into compounds more convenient for the cell to use. (such as ATP, ADP, NADPH, NADP+, NADH, FADH2).
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">__Nucleus__: Control center of the cell, contains DNA.
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">__Nucleolus__: The small dense region of a nucleus where the assembly of ribosomes begins.
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">__Nuclear Envelope__: What surrounds the nucleus; it is composed of two membranes. It is dotted with nuclear pores, which allow material to move into and out of the nucleus.
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">__Organelle__: Structures that act as specialized organs, do specific functions in and for the cell, means "little organ".
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">__Ribosomes__: Small particles of RNA and protein found throughout the cytoplasm that produce proteins according to the nucleus.
 * **<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">Are found in all cells **
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">__Vacuoles__: Saclike structures that store materials such as water, salts, proteins, and carbohydrates.
 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">Plants use vacuoles to help them stand up (Tugor Pressure).
