Palisade mesophyll cells
The Nucleus
Two meters of human DNA fits into a nucleus that’s 0.000005 meters across!
• Generally spherical with double membrane
• Pores in membrane• Contains genetic
information in chromosomes/chromatin (DNA + histone proteins)
The MitochondrionThink of the mitochondrion as the powerhouse of the cell.
• Has a double membrane (smooth outer and folded inner)
• Folds are called cristae• Shape varies• Site of energy production (ATP) during
cellular respiration• they have their own DNA• large surface for cellular metabolism• produces and contains its own ribosomes
(70S type)• Can reproduce independently
Worn out mitochondria may be an important factor in aging
Free ribosomesFree ribosomes
Bound ribosomes are attached to another organelle called the endoplasmic reticulum and their protein products are shipped out of the cell
The Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
• Consists of flattened membrane sacs called cisternae
• Often located near the nucleus• 80 S ribosomes attached to
outside• Synthesizes proteins which are
transported by vesicles to the golgi apparatus before secretion out of the cell
• Pancreatic exocrine cells would have an abundance of these do to the constant production of digestive enzymes
Rough ERSmooth ER-no ribosomes-lipid synthesis- Fewer of these exist in pancreatic cells
Endoplasmic Reticulum
The Golgi collects, packages, modifies and distribute materials the cell makes (especially protein)
Golgi in the cytoplasm of a macrophage in lung tissue
• Like the ER it is composed of flattened sacs called cisternae
• However, it has no ribosomes and is often near the plasma membrane
• Cisternae are shorter and more curved than those on ER
Golgi apparatus
VesiclesVesicles

materials outside of cellmaterials outside of cell
http://bcs.whfreeman.com/thelifewire/content/chp04/0402002.html
The Lysosome•Intracellular•arise from golgi•Spherical with a single membrane
Many diseases (e.g. Tay-Sachs) are caused by lysosome malfunction http://highered.mheducation.com/sites/0072495855/student_view0/chapter2/animation__lysosomes.html
Functions: Contain digestive enzymes•Breakdown ingested food•Breakdown damaged or unwanted organelles•Cell suicide (a.k.a “suicide sac”)
Stains dark in micrographs due to high concentration of enzymes
The Lysosome
This bacterium about to be eaten by an immune system cell will spend the last minutes of its existence within a lysosome.
VacuolesVacuoles
• Store food, waste, toxins, water
• Increase SA to volume ratio
• Allow plants to be rigid
Cilia and FlagellaCilia and Flagella
CiliaCiliatiny hair like projectionstiny hair like projectionscontains microtubulescontains microtubulesused to move the cell or used to move the cell or move the fluids next to the move the fluids next to the cellcell
Flagella•Thin projection from cell surface•Contains microtubules•Used for movement
Mature plant cells do not contain these structures but some plant gametes do
Lung cilia
Microtubules and CentriolesMicrotubules and Centrioles
The ChloroplastThink of the chloroplast as the solar panel of the plant cell.
Only plants and algae have chloroplasts
• Contain double membrane• same size as bacteria• Has own DNA• has 70 S ribosomes• can reproduce on own• Inside are stacks of
thylakoids (discs of flattened membrane)
• Usually oval in shape• Site of photosynthesis
(production of carbohydrates)
Starch granules maybe present if producing lots of food!
IN PLANTS NOT ANIMALS!
Granum-flattened sacs like solar panels (increase SA)
Stroma-fluid, contains enzymes and chemicals
Cell WallCell Wall
• Extracellular component not an organelle
• Secreted by all plant cells (also fungi and some protists)
• In plants it contains mostly cellulose
• Cellulose is permeable, strong and hard to digest (little maintenance required)
IN PLANTS NOT ANIMALS!
DifferencesDifferencesPlant Plant vs. vs. AnimalAnimal
Cell wall noneChloroplasts noneLarge vacuoles small or noneCarbs stored as starch glycogenNo centrosome centrosomeFixed angular shape flexible, rounded

An animal cell cytoskeleton
The name is misleading. The cytoskeleton is the skeleton or scaffolding of the cell, but its also like the muscular system as well, able to change the shape of cells in a flash.
