Nucleus
Contains chromatin, cell control center, surrounded by a double layer of membrane with pores
Transparent Vesicle
Carries secretions for export from cell, Buds off from the Golgi apparatus, How proteins, other substances get from ER to Golgi apparatus
Central Vacuole
May store water, needed chemicals, wastes, pigments in plant cell
Smooth ER
Lipids manufactured here, breaks down drugs and toxins in liver, stores calcium in muscle cells, drug tolerance results from enlarging this
Lysosome
Sac of digestive enzymes, defective in Tay-Sachs disease, digests food, wastes, foreign substances
Golgi Apparatus
"Ships" products to plasma membrane, outside, or other organelles, takes in transport vesicles from ER and modifies their contents, marks and sorts molecule to be sent to different destinations, buds from here become lysosomes
Rough ER
Makes cell membranes, numerous ribosomes give it its name, proteins made and modified here for secretion from cell, fuses with food and vacuole and digests contents
Contractile Vacuole
Pumps out excess water from some cells
Ribosome
Small structure that makes protein,
Plasma Membrane
Boundary between the cell and its surroundings, phosopholipid bilayer with proteins controls flow in and out of cell
