Animal Cell Structure
 CELL MEMBRANE
Semi-Permeable to control enter and exit of
materials from cell.
 Cell Wall
Provides shape and strength to a plant cell
 NUCLEUS
Control centre of cell.
 CHROMOSOMES
Genetic material in nucleus.

 Peroxisome
Fulfils essential metabolic functions in lipid
metabolism, both catabolic and anabolic
Plasmodesmata
 Tonoplast
The membrane surrounding the vacuole, separating its
contents from the cytoplasm in a cell
