Structure Function Location Found in Plant or (Organelle) Animal

material inside the Between the —not membrane & the Both including the nucleus nucleus

Jelly-like substance Between the cell that fills the cell & membrane & the Both surrounds the nucleus organelles

The center of the which contains Animal: Nucleus the protons and Right in the center of neutrons; in cells, the cell structure that Both contains the cell's Plant: off to the side genetic material of the (DNA) and controls the cell's activities

Layer of two Between the nucleus membranes that & cytoplasm (outside Both surrounds the of the nucleus) nucleus of a cell

Granular material visible within the Chromatin nucleus; consists of Inside the nucleus Both DNA tightly coiled around

Threadlike structure within the nucleus containing the Chromosome genetic information Inside the nucleus Both that is passed from one generation of cells to the next

Small, dense region within most nuclei in which the assembly Middle of the nucleus Both of proteins begins

Small particle in the cell on which proteins On Rough ER & are assembled; made within the cytoplasm Both of RNA and

Rough: Makes “simple” Rough: proteins from RNA Directly next to the Endoplasmic nucleus Reticulum Smooth: Both Makes , phospholipids, Smooth: steroids, & Directly next to the detoxification of nucleus drugs

stack of membranes in the cell that modifies, sorts, and Right next to the ER Both packages proteins from the

cell organelle filled with enzymes needed Found throughout the Both to break down certain cells materials in the cell; digests food for cell

cell organelle that stores materials such as water, salts, Huge part of the cell Plant proteins, and (90% almost) carbohydrates

cell organelle that converts the chemical Found within different Mitochondria stored in food parts of the Both into compounds that cytoplasm are more convenient for the cell to use Organelle found in cells of plants and some other Found within different that parts of the Plant captures the energy cytoplasm from sunlight and converts it into chemical energy

Strong supporting layer around the cell The outermost layer membrane in plants, of the Plant algae, and some

Microfilaments: Threadlike structures made of protein. : Help for cell Network throughout movement and the cytoplasm support the cell

Microtubules: : Both Hollow structures Network throughout made up of tubulin the cytoplasm. Cilia protein. Very and flagella are important in helping located on outside of cell maintain shape the cell Also help for cilia or flagella

One of two tiny structures located in the cytoplasm of animal cells near the Near the nuclear nuclear envelope envelope Animal

Formed from Tublin

Extremely important in
