1. Cell Animation By: Andrew O’Leary

2. Nucleus Double- layered membrane that envelopes the nucleus . Structure that houses 2 chromosomes Combination of your DNA You get 23 chromosomes from both your mom and dad.

3. Cell Membrane Separate the interior cells from the outside environment Molecules composed of amino acids joined together by peptide bonds

4. Cell Wall The cell wall maintains the integrity of the cell

5. Cytoplasm It also anchors organelles, and controls movement internal movement of structures The cytoplasm maintains the shape of the cell

6. Nuclear Enveolpe The Nuclear Envelope allows the RNA and other chemicals to pass, but the DNA not to pass.

7. Chromosomes Chromosomes are the carriers of genetic information. This information is unique to every individual and controls the cell.

8. Ribosomes Proteins syntheses occurs in Ribosomes

9. Endoplasmic Reticulum Smooth ER assist in transport Endoplasmic Reticulum assist protein synthesis and transport. There are 2 types of ER Rough ER and Smooth ER Rough ER connect to the nuclear envelope allowing protein to travel to the ribosomes

10. Golgi Apparatus The Golgi Apparatus modifies, sorts, and packages proteins from the EndoplamicReticilum

11. Mitochondria Mitochondria are sites of energy release and ATP formation. They are known as the “ Powerhouse of the Cell”

12. Chloroplast Chloroplast are sites of photosynthesis in eukaryotes.

13. Vesicle Vesicles transport materials both within the cell and to the outside of the cell.

14. Vacuole Vacuoles are used as storage areas within the cell.

15. Lysosome Lysosomes contain hydrolitic enzymes and are responsible for the extracellular breakdown of materials.

16. Cytoskeleton The cytoskeleton maintains cell shape and allows movement of the cell and its organelles.

17. Centriole Centrioles act as a basal body for cilia and flagella.
