Question

Hi!
Today in school my teacher assigned a worksheet where the students have to choose an analogy to an animal or plant cell and list the analogies. I plan to do a plant cell.

I need nucleus, nucleolus, chromatin, cell membrane, ribosomes, rough er, golgi bodies, smooth er, vacuole, lysosomes, mitchondria, cytoplasm, chlorosplasts, and cell wall.

I would do this myself but i dont have the best bio teacher. she expects us to teach ourselves (which im horrible at! ) so therefore i dont know much of the functions of these organelles...

I would greatly appreciate an answer!
Thank you!! =] Hi!

Explanation / Answer

Alright here's a quick overview of the functions of these organelles Nucleus: A core of a cell. It's where genetic material is held in forms of chromatids Nucleolus: Found inside the nucleus. It contains RNA with ribosomal proteins Chromatin: It's found in the nucleus. It's a complex of DNA. Cell Membrane: An outer layer of the cell. It separates the inside and the outside environment. This is where things go in and out are maintained. Ribosome:A complex of rRNA and protein molecules that functions as a site of protein synthesis in the cytoplasm; consists of a large and a small subunit. Rough ER: it has ribosomes attached it. It's where proteins are made Golgi Bodies: Modify and store products of the ER Smooth ER: Synthesize lipids and steroids (These do not have ribosomes on it) Vacuole: Mainly holds water and organic molecules Lysosome: It removes all the toxins in the cell Mitochondria: Make energy (ATP) for the cell to use Cytoplasm: Membranes in the cell. It hold all of the organelles in place. Chloroplast: Where photosynthesis occurs. Cell Wall: Holds the structure of plant cells. Cell walls allows cell to hold a lot of water without exploding. Hope this helps!
