  • Mitochondria are responsible for producing energy through aerobic respiration.
  • The cytoplasm is the jelly-like substance surrounding the nucleus, containing organelles such as mitochondria, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, vacuoles, cytoskeleton, and chloroplasts.
  • The nucleus contains the genetic material (DNA) that controls all cellular activities.
  • The endoplasmic reticulum is involved in the synthesis, modification, and transport of proteins within cells.
  • Ribosomes are small structures found in all living organisms that play a crucial role in protein synthesis.
  • Chromatin is made up of DNA wrapped around proteins called histones to form chromosomes.
  • Nucleolus - site of RNA synthesis
  • Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes that break down waste materials inside the cell.
  • Nucleolus is where RNA molecules are synthesized from DNA templates.
  • Ribosome - site of protein synthesis
  • Ribosomes are sites of protein synthesis.
  • Ribosomes are small structures found in the cytoplasm or attached to the rough ER where protein synthesis occurs.
  • Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes used by cells to break down waste materials.
  • Vacuoles store water, nutrients, and wastes inside plant cells.
  • Vacuoles store water, nutrients, pigments, and wastes inside plant cells.
  • Vacuoles store water, nutrients, and other substances needed by the cell.
  • Cytoskeleton provides structural support to the cell and helps with movement and division.
