Eukaryotic Cell Structures Prt. 1

Cytoplasm
1. The portion of the cell outside the nucleus
  1. Works w/nucleus in the business of life
2. In both plant and animal cells
Cell Membrane
1. Thin flexible barrier covering cells
  1. Regulates what enters and leaves the cell and also protects and supports the cell
2. In plant and animal cells
Cell Wall
1. Strong supporting layer around the membrane
  1. Support, shape, and protects the cell
2. In only plant cells
Nucleus
1. In both plant and animal cells
2. Large membrane enclosed structure
  1. Contains DNA
Nuclear Envelope
1. Only in animal cells
2. Double-layered membrane that enveloped the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell
  1. Separates content of the nucleus from the cytoplasm
Chromatin
1. In plant and animal cells
2. A complex of DNA
  1. Carries cells genetic information
Chromosome
1. In plant and animal cells
2. Found in nucleus / thread-like
  1. Carries cells genetic information
Nucleolus
1. Only in animal cells
2. Round granular structure within the nucleus
  1. Involved with ribosomal RNA synthesis and formation of ribosomes in eukaryotes
Ribosome
1. In both plant and animal cells
2. Small particles of RNA and protein found through out cytoplasm
  1. Produce proteins on orders that come from its DNA "boss".
