Organelles

//Organelle is a structure with in a cell, mini organs.// __﻿__
 * Organelles: **
 * __**Cell Membrane**__//(both plant&animal cells)-// Controls what enters and exits the cell. Made up of special lipids called phospholipid.
 * __**Cell Wall**__//(plant cells only)-// Rigid structure surrounding the cell membrane in plants. Made up of the polysaccaride cellulose.
 * __**Cytoplasm**__//(both plant&animal cells)-// Jelly-like substance found inside ALL cells. Located between the cell membrane and the nucleus. Location of many reactions.
 * __**Nucleus**__//(both plant&animal cells)-// Control center of the cells. Contains DNA. Usually found in the center of the cell. Surrounded and protected by its own membrance called the nuclear envelope.
 * __**Nucleolus**__//(both plant&animal cells)-// Specialized region within the nuclues. Where ribosomes are formed.
 * __**Ribosomes**__//(both plant&animal cells)-// Enzymes that carry-out protein synthesis. Found in the cytoplasm or attached to the rough ER.
 * __**Rough ER**__//(both plant&animal cells)-// Manufactures proteins for export outside of the cell. Studded with ribosomes. Located near the nucleus,
 * __**Smooth ER**__//(both plant&animal cells)-// Manufactures membranes lipids. Detoxification.
 * __**Golgi Apparatus**__//(both plant&animal cells)-// Collects, packages, modified and ships cell products.
 * __**Lysosome**__//(animal cells only)-// Recycles old and worn out organelles and other cell parts. Can break-down food and other cells.
 * __**Vacuoles**__//__(__both plant&animal cells)-// Larger in plant cells than in animal cells. Stores water nutrients and wastes.
 * __**Turgor Pressure-**__ This phenomena is seen in plants when the pressure fromo the filled vacuole pushes on the cell wall, giving structure to the plant.
 * __**Chloroplast**__//(plant cells only)-// Converts light energy(from the sun) into chemical energy (sugar).
 * __**Mitochondria**__//(both plant&animal cells)-// Breaks down food into energy that the body can use. (ATP).
 * __**Cytoskeleton**__//(both plant&animal cells)//- The cell's "skeleton". Made of microtubles, microfilaments and intermediate filaments that give the cell its shape. Allows the cell to move.
 * __**Centrioles**__//(animal cells only)-// Paired structures that aids in cell division.
 * **__Cilia__**//(animal cells only)-// Fine hair-like structures involved in movement.
 * **__Flagella__**//(animal cells only)-// large whip-tail involved in movement. Usually only one or a few are present on a cell.
