Organelles

Organelles

1. Mitochondrion

   • Produces energy (ATP)

2. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (with ribosomes)

   • Manufactures protein

3. Golgi Body

   • Packages proteins into vesicles

4. Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum

   • Metabolises lipids, detoxifies

5. Lysosome

   • Contains enzymes for breaking down substances

6. Nucleus

   • control centre, contains genetic code
     • Also contains nucleolus which makes the ribosomes

7. Cell Extensions

   • • Cilia
       • Brushes away debris from cell surface
     • Flagella
       • gives motility to sperm
     • Microvilli
       • Increases surface area for absorption

8. Cytoskeleton

   • give cell support or make machinery for cell movements
     • Microtubules
       • Form centrioles to help mitosis with spindle or make cilia/flagella
     • Intermediate filaments
       • provide tensile strength to cells
     • Microfilaments
       • involved in cell movement and shape
