Cells

THE POWER POINT

Structures in
the Cell

FUNCTIONS AND
RELATIONSHIPS OF
ORGANELLES IN A CELL

Ribosomes

Create proteins for cells

Uses Blue Prints from the nucleus

Attaches itself to Rough ER

Floats threw cell freely sometimes

Nucleus

Control center of the cell

Controls cells activity

Controls all Functions in a cell

Stores DNA in the cell

Send information around the cell

Mitochondria

The powerhouse of the cell

Create ATP to power cell

Some Mitochondria store DNA

Creates Energy for the cell

Lysosomes

Deposes of waste in the cell

Breaks Down used proteins

Breaks down of old structures

Vacuole

Stores nutrients

Stores waste

Stores materials

Stores water

Golgi Bodies

Transports proteins around the cell

Packages proteins

Puts a tag on the protein package

This tag tells the Golgi bodies where to send the proteins

Ships materials out of the cell as well

Builds Lysosomes

Cell Membrane

Protects cell from the outside

Keeps cell together

Keeps parts of the cell inside

Keeps outside objects from getting in the cell

Allows materials from cell to pass out of the cell

Endoplasmic Reticulum

Two types of ER smooth and Rough

Rough has ribosomes attached to it

Smooth has no ribosomes attached to it

Helps to ship proteins

Cilia and Flagella

Cilia is composed of little hairs

Helps moves the cell

Flagella is a long tail at the back of the cell

Also helps move the cell

Cytoplasm

Fills up extra space in cell

Protects organelles

Dissolves Molecules in cell

Comprised of water and salts

Cell Wall

Only found in plant cells

Provides extra protection for the cell

Surrounds the cell membrane

Mainly consists of cellulose

Specialization
of Cells

Nerve Cells

Can Conduct electric pluses

Carries messages to different parts of the body

Helps to keep brain connected to the rest of the body

Can communicate with other nerve cells

In a Unicellular Organism

What acts like a nerve cell is the nucleus

Nucleus keeps in contact with other structures in the cell

Like nerve cells nucleus sends messages around

Systems and
Unicellular
Organisms

Skeletal System

Holds the human body together

Comprised of calcium bones

Keeps human body in shape

Provides protection to internal organs

Cytoskeleton

Comprised of small tubes that keep cells shape

Hold organelles in place (Like bones hold organs in place)

Used to transport materials around cell

Integumentary System

Helps keep the body safe from water loss and abrasion from outside

Consists of skin, nails, and hair

Keeps organs and other parts of body inside

Keeps organisms outside the body

Cell Membrane In Unicellular

Organism

Like skin keeps organelles in cell

Protects the cell from the outside

Prevents water loss in cell (like skin)

Protects cell from damage
