CYTOSKELETON:
reinforces cell’s shape;
functions in cell movement;
components are made of
protein. Includes:
Microfilaments
Intermediate filaments
Ribosomes (small brown
Microtubules dots): complexes that
make proteins; free in
cytosol or bound to
rough ER or nuclear
Microvilli:
envelope
projections that
increase the cell’s
surface area Golgi apparatus: organelle active
in synthesis, modification, sorting,
and secretion of cell products
Peroxisome: organelle with
various specialized metabolic
Lysosome: digestive
functions; produces hydrogen
organelle where
peroxide as a by-product and
macromolecules are
then converts it to water
hydrolyzed
Mitochondrion: organelle where
cellular respiration occurs and
most ATP is generated BioFlix® animation: tour of an animal Cell

Plasma membrane organelle; converts energy of

cell’s shape and protects cell from
mechanical damage; made of cellulose,
other polysaccharides, and protein Plasmodesmata: cytoplasmic BioFlix® animation: tour of a Plant Cell
