Organelles
Organelles are compartmentalised structures that serve specific purposes
Examples of eukaryotic organelles include: • 80S ribosomes – Responsible for protein synthesis (translation) • Nucleus – Stores genetic information (site of transcription) • Mitochondria – Site of aerobic respiration (ATP production) • Endoplasmic reticulum – Transports materials between organelles • Golgi complex – Sorts, stores, modifies & exports secretory products • Centrosomes – Involved in cell division (mitosis and meiosis)
Organelles found only in specific cell types include: • Chloroplasts – Site of photosynthesis (plant cells only) • Lysosomes – Breakdown of macromolecules (animal cells)

︎No chloroplast Have chloroplast
No cell wall Cell wall (cellulose)
No plasmodesmata Plasmodesmata
Temporary vacuoles Large central vacuole
Cholesterol present in the cell membrane
No cholesterol in the cell membrane
Glucose → glycogen Glucose → starch
