Vacuole Vacuoles are storage bubbles found in cells.

They are found in both animal and

plant cells but are much larger in
plant cells. Vacuoles might store food or any
variety of nutrients a cell might need to survive.
They can even store waste products so the rest
of the cell is protected from contamination
Centrioles The main function of the centriole is to help with
cell division in animal cells. The centrioles help
in the formation of the spindle fibres that
separate the chromosomes during cell division
(mitosis)
Cytoplasm The jelly-like fluid that fills a cell is
called cytoplasm. It is made up of mostly water
and salt. Cytoplasm is present within the cell
membrane of all cell types and contains all
organelles and cell parts.
Ribosomes Ribosomes are a cell structure that makes
protein. Protein is needed for many cell
functions such as repairing damage or directing
chemical processes. Ribosomes can be found
floating within the cytoplasm or attached to the
endoplasmic reticulum.
Mitochondria The most prominent roles of mitochondria are
to produce the energy currency of the cell, ATP
(i.e., phosphorylation of ADP), through
respiration, and to regulate cellular metabolism.
The central set of reactions involved in ATP
production are collectively known as the citric
acid cycle, or the Krebs cycle.
Endoplasmic Reticulum The endoplasmic reticulum serves many
generalfunctions, including the folding of
protein molecules in sacs called cisternae and
the transport of synthesized proteins in vesicles
to the Golgi apparatus.
Peroxisomes Peroxisomes have two functions: break down
fatty acids to be used for forming membranes
and as fuel for respiration; and transfer
hydrogen from compounds to oxygen to create
hydrogen peroxide and then convert hydrogen
peroxide into water.
Golgi Apparatus The job of the Golgi apparatus is to process
and bundle macromolecules like proteins and
lipids as they are synthesized within the cell.
The Golgi apparatus is sometimes compared to
a post office inside the cell since one major
function is to modify, sort, and package
proteins to be secreted.
Plasma Membrane The primary function of the plasma
membrane is to protect the cell from its
surroundings. Composed of a phospholipid
bilayer with embedded proteins, theplasma
membrane is selectively permeable to ions and
 organic molecules and regulates the movement
of substances in and out of cells.
Microfilaments The Function Of Microfilaments. Microfilaments,
or actin filaments, are the thinnest filaments of
the cytoskeleton and are found in the
cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. The polymers of
these linear filaments are flexible but still
strong, resisting crushing and buckling while
providing support to the cell.
Flagella The primary role of the flagellum is locomotion,
but it also often has function as a sensory
organelle, being sensitive to chemicals and
temperatures outside the cell. Flagellaare
organelles defined by function rather than
structure
Lysosomes Inside a cell, numerous organelles function to
remove wastes. One of the key organelles
involved in digestion and waste removal is
the lysosome.Lysosomes are organelles that
contain digestive enzymes. They digest excess
or worn out organelles, food particles, and
engulfed viruses or bacteria.
