Plasma Membrane Prevents escape of cell contents: regulates exchange of materials between cytoplasm and extracellular fluid; involved in intracellular communication
Microvilli Increase absorptive surface area
Cilia Moves substances along cell surface
Flagellum Sperm motility
Nucleus Genetic control center of cell; directs protein synthesis
Rough ER Protein synthesis and manufacture of cellular membrane
Smooth ER Lipid synthesis, detoxification, calcium storage
Ribosomes Interpret the genetic code and synthesize polypeptides
Golgi Complex Receives and modifies newly synthesized polypeptides, synth. carbos, adds carbos to glycoproteins; packages cell products.
Golgi Vesicle Become secretory vesicles and carry cell products to apical surface for exocytosis or become lysosomes
Lysosomes Contain enzymes for intracellular digestion
Peroxisomes Contains enzymes for detoxification of free radicals, alcohol, and other drugs
Mitochondria ATP synthesis
Centrioles Form mitotis spindle during cell division
Centrosome Organizing center for formation of microtubules of cytoskeleton
Basal body Point of origin, growth, and anchorage of a cilium or flagellum; produces axoneme
Microfilaments support microvilli and plasma membrane; muscle contraction, endocytosis, and cell division
Intermediate filaments Give shape and physical support to cell
Microtubules Enable motility of cell parts; form axonemes of cilia and flagella
Inclusions Storage products or other products of cellular metabolism
