PARTS OF THE CELL

PLANT CELL
 CELL WALL is the outermost rigid covering of the plant cell. It is a salient feature of
plant cell.
 CELL MEMBRANE is the outer lining of the cell.
 CYTOSOL OR CYTOPLASM is the gel-like matrix inside the cell membrane which
constitutes all other cell organelles.
 NUCLEUS is the control center of the cell. It is a membrane bound structure which
contains the hereditary material of the cell - the DNA
 CHLOROPLAST is a plastid with green pigment chlorophyll. It traps light energy and
converts it to chemical energy by the process of photosynthesis.
 MITOCHONDRIA carry out cellular respiration and provides energy to the cells.
 VACUOLES are the temporary storage center of the cell.
 GOLGI BODY is the unit where proteins are sorted and packed.
 RIBOSOMES are structures that assemble proteins.
 ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM are membrane covered organelles that transport
materials.

ANIMAL CELL
 CELL MEMBRANE
 It is a semi-permeable barrier, allowing only a few molecules to move across it.
 Electron microscopic studies of cell membrane shows the lipid bi-layer model of the
plasma membrane, it also known as the fluid mosaic model.
 The cell membrane is made up of phospholipids which has polar (hydrophilic) heads
and non-polar (hydrophobic) tails.
 CYTOPLASM
 The fluid matrix that fills the cell is the cytoplasm.
 The cellular organelles are suspended in this matrix of the cytoplasm.
 This matrix maintains the pressure of the cell, ensures the cell doesn't shrink or burst.
 NUCLEUS
 The house for most of the cell’s genetic material- the DNA and RNA.
 The nucleus is surrounded by a porous membrane known as the nuclear membrane.
 The RNA moves in/out of the nucleus through these pores.
 Proteins needed by the nucleus enter through the nuclear pores.
 The RNA helps in protein synthesis through transcription process.
 The nucleus controls the activity of the cell and is known as the control center.
 The nucleolus is the dark spot in the nucleus, and it is the location for ribosome
formation.
 RIBOSOMES
 Ribosomes is the site for protein synthesis where the translation of the RNA takes
place.
 As protein synthesis is very important to the cell, ribosomes are found in large
number in all cells.

 Ribosomes are found freely suspended in the cytoplasm and also are attached to the
endoplasmic reticulum.
 ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM
 ER is the transport system of the cell. It transports molecules that need certain
changes and also molecules to their destination.
 ER is of two types, rough and smooth.
 ER bound to the ribosomes appear rough and is the rough endoplasmic reticulum;
while the smooth ER do not have the ribosomes.
 LYSOSOMES
 It is the digestive system of the cell.
 They have digestive enzymes helps in breakdown the waste molecules and also help
in detoxification of the cell.
 If the lysosomes were not membrane bound the cell could not have used the
destructive enzymes.
 CENTROSOMES
 It is located near the nucleus of the cell and is known as the 'microtubule organizing
center' of the cell.
 Microtubules are made in the centrosome.
 During mitosis the centrosome aids in dividing of the cell and moving of the
chromosome to the opposite sides of the cell.
 VACUOLES
 They are bound by single membrane and small organelles.
 In many organisms, vacuoles are storage organelles.
 Vesicles are smaller vacuoles which function for transport in/out of the cell.
 GOLGI BODIES
 Golgi bodies are the packaging center of the cell.
 The Golgi bodies modify the molecules from the rough ER by dividing them into
smaller units with membrane known as vesicles.
 They are flattened stacks of membrane-bound sacs.
 MITOCHONDRIA
 Mitochondria is the main energy source of the cell.
 They are called the power house of the cell because energy (ATP) is created here.
 Mitochondria consists of inner and outer membrane.
 It is spherical or rod-shaped organelle.
 It is an organelle which is independent as it has its own hereditary material.
 PEROXISOMES
 Peroxisomes are single membrane bound organelle that contain oxidative enzymes
that are digestive in function.
 They help in digesting long chains of fatty acids and amino acids and help in
synthesis of cholesterol.
 CYTOSKELETON
 It is the network of microtubules and microfilament fibers.
 They give structural support and maintain the shape of the cell.
 CILIA AND FLAGELLA
 Cilia and flagella are structurally identical structures.
 They are different based on the function they perform and their length.
 Cilia are short and are in large number per cell while flagella are longer and are fewer

physics, astronomy and engineering, he managed to become a successful inventor. He
became famous for his innovative thinking and was the one to come up with a lot of
innovative machines, including the ARCHIMEDES SCREW that is still used today to
pump liquids, coal, grain and more. But probably his most famous discovery is the way
of finding the volume of objects that have an irregular shape. It is worth mentioning that
most of his works were meant to help his home city.

important inventions include the hydraulic machine, the boat and design of a flying
machine.
EVANGELISTA TORRICELLI (1608-1647)
 The famous Italian physicist and mathematician is the author of the BAROMETER
(scientific tool used in the field of meteorology to estimate atmospheric pressure), built in
1643. It would be interesting to note that a number of Italian Navy submarines were
named after the inventor.
FERDINAND VERBIEST (1623 - 1688)
