• Animal cell

  
• Structures of the Cell Membrane

  
• Chromatin


  Loosely coiled fiber containing DNA and proteins within nucleus

  
• Cytoplasm


  Occupies space between cell membrane and nucleus

  
• Endoplasmic reticulum


  Composed of membrane-bound canals and sacs for tubular transport throughout the cytoplasm

  
• Golgi apparatus


  Flattened membranous sacs that package a secretion

  
• Lysosomes


  Membranous sac that contains digestive enzymes

  
• Microtubules


  Slender tubes that provide movement in cilia and flagella

  
• Mitochondrion (Mitochondria)


  Location of ATP production from digested food molecules

  
• Nuclear Envelope


  Separates nuclear contents from cytoplasm

  
• Nucleolus


  Dense body of RNA within nucleus

  
• Nucleus


  Spherical organelle that contains chromatin and nucleolus

  
• Ribosome


  Small RNA-containing particles for the synthesis of proteins

  
• Vesicle


  Membranous sac that stores or transports substances
