Learning Outcomes
At the end of this session, you should be
able to :
protein
phospholipid NUCLEUS:
Nuclear envelope
Chromatin
Cytoskeleton
Nucleolus
Ribosomes
Cytoplasm
Peroxisome
Mitochondrion
Vesicle
*Lysosome Polyribosome
Golgi apparatus
* Central vacuole
NUCLEUS
Ribosomes
* Chloroplast
Centrosomes
ENDOPLASMIC Mitochondrion
RETICULUM :
Rough ER
Smooth ER CYTOSKELETON
Golgi apparatus
Plasma membrane
Cytoplasm
* Cell wall
Surrounds cytoplasm,
and regulates
entrance and exit
of molecules
Nucleus
command center of cell
Nuclear envelope
double membrane that encloses
nucleus
Chromatin
diffuse threads containing
DNA
Nucleolus
produces ribosomal
subunits
Adapted from:https://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/cells/nucleus/chromatin.html
Endoplasmic reticulum
Rough ER :
studded with
ribosomes
Smooth ER :
lacks
ribosomes, synthesizes
lipid molecules
Ribosome Ribosome:
Particles that carry out protein
synthesis
Polyribosome:
string of
ribosomes
Ribosomes : particles that carry out protein synthesis
• Non-membrane-bound
particles where protein
synthesis occurs
• Made of 2 subunits
Peroxisome :
vesicle that
breaks down fatty
acids
Golgi apparatus
Golgi apparatus :
processes, packages,
and secretes modified
cell products
Golgi
apparatus
• One side is directed
toward the ER and the
other toward the
plasma membrane
• Golgi receives,
processes, and
packages proteins
and lipids, so that
they may be sent to
their final destination
in the cell
• Forms transport
vesicles
✓ May become
lysosomes
✓ May be released
during secretion
or exocytosis
Vesicle
Vesicle:
memebrane-bounded
Sac that stores and transports
substances
Cytoplasm
Cytoplasm:
Semifluid matrix ou side
nucleus that contains organelles
Centrosome
Centrosomes :
Microtubules organizing
center (lacks centrioles)
Centrosomes :
Microtubules organizing
center (contain centrioles)
Cytoskeleton
Cytoskeleton :
protein fibers
that maintain cell shape and
assist movement of cell parts
• All eukaryotic cells have a
cytoskeleton
– Network of protein fibers
within the cytoplasm
– Found in both plants and
animals
– In animals, used for support
and determine shape
– Fibers can assemble and
disassemble rapidly
– Anchors organelles in place
but also allows them to move
• 3 types of fibers
– Actin filaments, intermediate
filaments, and microtubules
* Not found in plant cells
*Centrioles :
short cylinders
of microtubules
of unknown
functions
*Lysosome :
vesicle that
digests biomolecules
and even cell parts
* Central vacuole :
* Not found in animal cells large, fluid - filled
sac that stores
substance sand
Helps maintain turgor
pressure
* Chloroplast :
Carries out
photo synthesis,
producing sugars
* Cell wall :
outer surface that
shapes, supports , and
protects cell
Vesicles allow the organelles of the endomembrane system to work together
1. ER,
2. Golgi
apparatus,
3. lysosomes,
and
4. transport

Lysosome
In Multicellular Organisms, Cells Communicate
Animal cells
• Anchoring junction – in tissues that stretch
• Tight junction – even more close joining
• Gap junctions – strength and communication
• Extracellular matrix (ECM)
Varies from flexible to rock solid
Fibers and glycoproteins
Plant cells
▪ All plant cells have primary cells
walls
▪ Living plant cells connected by
plasmodesmata
▪ Allows direct exchange of
materials
