A protective barrier around the cell made of a double layer of lipids
Cell Membrane
Nucleus
The control centre of the cell. It controls all the activities in the cell, including growth and reproduction
Has a Cell Membrane
Both
The powerhouse of the cell – this is where chemical reactions occur to convert chemical energy in sugar into energy that the cell can use.
Mitochondria
Vesicles & Vacuoles
Membrane-bound organelles that store nutrients, wastes, and other substances used in the cell
Have a big vacuole
Plant Cells
Structures responsible for cell division
Centrioles
Lysosomes
Small organelles that are filled with enzymes (proteins that speed up chemical reactions) where digestion takes place
or
They also break down invading bacteria and damaged cell organelles – the clean-up system in the cell.
Does not have chloroplast
Animal Cells
Small organelles where proteins are assembled. They can be free in the cell, or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum.
Ribosomes
Endoplasmic Reticulum
¡A series of interconnected small tubes that carry materials throughout the cell
Has lysosomes
Animal cells
Receives proteins from the ER, and modifies, sorts, and packages them for delivery throughout the cell or even outside the cell.
Golgi Apparatus
Cytoskeleton
Internal network of fibres, made of proteins, which helps maintain the cell’s shape
Has cell wall
Plant Cells
