animal cells

• Ribosomes- Site of protein synthesis in the cell.
• Nucleus- contains genetic material and controls the activities of the cell.
• cell membrane-a thin but tough wall surrounding the cell. It allows useful substances to enter the cell. But it blocks the entry of harmful substances.
• cytoplasm-  a watery, gel-like substance made of mostly salt and water that provides a structure for the cell parts so they can move freely
• Vacuole- acts as a storage space for water and other molecules in the cell.
• Mitochondria- referred to as the powerhouse of the cell, they break down food into usable energy for cells. This energy source is called adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
• Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum- makes cellular products like hormones and lipids.
• Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum- a cellular organelle composed of many folds of tissues and channels. It provides surface area for chemical reactions to take place. It is rough because its surface is covered in ribosomes.
• Nucleolus- a spherical structure found in the cell's nucleus whose primary function is to produce and assemble the cell's ribosomes
• Golgi apparatus- packs and modifies protein.
• golgi vesicles- protein gets packed into them and gets sent to the cell membrane
• Lysosomes-  important organelles that help break down, or digest, certain materials inside the cell.
• centrosomes- they are made from two centrioles that organise microtubules and provide structure for the cell, as well as work to pull chromatids apart during cell division.
• centrioles- a paired barrel-shaped organelles
• plasma membrane- selectively permeable barrier that controls the movement of substances into and out of the cell
• Cellular respiration- turns chemical energy into cellular energy, glucose to ATP
• Ribosome- responsible for protein synthesis
• golgi body- delivers protein and removes stuff from the cell
• Lysosome- gets rid of the cells waste
