animal cells
MADE BY: GROUP 3
 introduction
Animal cells are the structural and functional
building blocks of all animal tissues and organs.
Eukaryotic cells are what they are. Animal cells,
unlike prokaryotic cells, have membrane-bound
organelles suspended in the cytoplasm
surrounded by a plasma membrane.
 DID YOU KNOW?
Animal cells are usually relatively small than
plant cells, with an unusual shape due to the
absence of the external wall—called the cell
wall. This occurs when a collection of cells
constructs a tissue, and then forms organs in
their organ system.
 01 LET'S GET STARTED
PART ONE: CELL MEMBRANE
Cell membrane,
also called Plasma Membrane is a lipid bilayer composed of
proteins and carbohydrates. Its main function is to protect
the cell from its outer environment and supply stability to its
proteins. It controls certain molecules' entry and exit, making
them selectively permeable. The cell membrane also
contains cholesterol that provides structural integrity and
support.
02 PART 2: CYTOPLASM
is the gel-like liquid that contains most of the
organelles and provides them with a place to operate
within the cell. It is responsible for comprising water
and enzymes, salts, and various organic molecules.
Cell expansion, growth, and replication are all carried
out in the cytoplasm.
03 PART 3:NUCLEAR MEMBRANE
also referred to as the Nuclear Envelope, is a
double-membrane structure that separates the
nucleus from the rest of the cell. It has pores
that permit the entry and exit of some
molecules.
04 PART 4: NUCLEUS
is somewhat the “brain” because it controls what happens
inside the cell; the metabolism and the reproduction of
activity. It stores the cell’s genetic information called
deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) which provides the info required
to make proteins. The nucleus also contains the nuclear
bodies, nucleoplasm, and chromosomes that allow the
selective passage of certain molecules.
 05 PART 5:NUCLEOLUS
is a spherical structure in the nucleus whose

primary purpose is to produce the cell’s ribosome

and facilitate its biogenesis. The ribosomal RNA
genes that serve as the site for protein synthesis are
also transcribed in this organelle.
06 ROUGH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM

is a large dynamic structure in charge of

producing and processing proteins for the
rest of the cell to function.
07 PART 7: SMOOTH ENDOPLASMIC
RETICULUM

its main function is to synthesize lipids and make

cellular products like hormones. It also plays a

vital role in the detoxification of harmful
substances and the storage of calcium ions in
the cell.
08 PART 8: RIBOSOMES

translates RNA into protein and helps in

protein synthesis. It is composed of special
proteins and nucleic acids. It is also found
individually within the cytoplasm or
endoplasmic reticulum.
09 PART 9: GOLGI APPARATUS
also called the Golgi complex or Golgi body collects
protein from the ER and modifies, sorts, and processes
them into vesicles. It also creates lysosomes and
transports lipids around the cell. The Golgi body
temporarily stores proteins and packages them up for
delivery to their destinations.
10 PART 10: LYSOSOMES

is a sac-like structure that functions as the

digestive system and digests obsolete
components of the cell itself. It is surrounded
by a single membrane and breaks down lipids,
carbohydrates, and proteins that are needed
for the cell.
11 part 11: mitochondria/mitochondrion
commonly known as the “powerhouse of the cell” that
produce the majority of the chemical energy required
for the cell's biochemical processes. Its other function
is oxidative phosphorylation wherein it produces ATP
by implementing the energy created during food
oxidation. Mitochondria also possess their own
comparatively tiny genetic material.
12 PART 12: VACUOLES
are organelles whose primary purpose is to
manage waste material, which includes both
receiving and disposing of waste products. It
also stores water and food that is needed
for the cell.
13 part 13: Centrosome
is responsible for organizing microtubules
and providing structure to the cell. It
facilitates the management of spindle
poles during mitosis and regulates cell
motility. The centrosome also pulls the
chromatids apart during cell division.
