5068396694	Chloroplast	Site of photosynthesis Converts solar energy into potential energy in the glucose molecule plant cells only	0
5068396695	Peroxisomes	makes hydrogen peroxide to detoxify alcohol or convert lipids to be used for energy plant and animal cells	1
5068396697	Amyloplast	Stores starch amylose and turns in into glucosec some plant cells	2
5068396698	Chromoplast	Responsible for the colors in plant 4 to 5 um plant cells only	3
5068396699	Plasmodesmata	holes and channels in the cell wall that connect adjacent cells; allows stuff to pass through plant cells only	4
5068396700	Tight Junctions	Establish barriers that prevents leakage between cells animal cells only	5
5068396701	Desmosomes	Joins two cells together by the cytoskeleton joins by rivets into strong sheets animal cells only	6
5068396702	Gap Junctions	Connects two adjacent cells, allows subjects to pass through tunnels; animal cells only	7
5068396703	Contractile Vacuole	Osmoregulation Takes water from cell then pushes the water out through cell membrane or wall Protists and algae	8
5068396704	Cell Membrane	Protects cell from surroundings Allows certain substances in, keeps others out Phospholipid bilayer with proteins plant and animal	9
5068396705	Nucleus	Brain of cell contains dna plant and animal	10
5068396706	Nucleolus	Non-membranus structure involved in production of ribosomes; located in the nucleus plant and animal	11
5068396707	Centrioles	Small microtubles arranged in specific ways aids in cell division Animal only	12
5068396708	Ribosomes	complexes that makes proteins; free in cytosol or bound to rough ER or nuclear envelope plant and animal	13
5068396709	Golgi Apparatus	organelle active in synthesis, modification, sorting, and secretion of cell products Plant and animal	14
5068396710	Endoplasmic Reticulum Rough+Smooth	network of membranous sacs and tubes active in making and transporting proteins and lipids Plant and animal	15
5068396711	Mitochondria	organelle where cellular resperation occurs and most ATP is generated plant and animal	16
5068396712	Lysosomes	digestive organelle where macromolecules are hydrolyzed (broken down); autophagy; apoptosis animal only	17
5068396714	Cytoskeleton	reinforces cell's shape;functions in cell movement; components are made of protein plant and animal	18
5068396715	Microtubles	chromosome movement, cell division processes, and maintains cell shape MOVING CELL PARTS plant and animal	19
5068396716	Microfilaments	helps with cell movement, gives shape,cytoplasmic streaming Thinnest filament thin, solid rods actin, myosin INVOLVED in MUSCLE CONTRACTION animal and plant	20
5068396717	Intermediate Filaments	shape cell, maintains positions of some organelles proteins (keratin) in coils	21
5068396718	Central Vacuole	Largest organelle in plant cell; maintains turgor pressure because it is inflated with water. plant only	22
5068396719	Cell Wall	outer layer that maintains cell's shape and protects from damage made of cellulose and other polysachrides, and proteins Plant only	23
5068396720	Cilia	located on outside of cell. pushes cell forward; short, numerous, and hair-like plant and animal	24
5068396721	Flagellum	located on the outside of a cell; used for locomotion whip like structure made of microtubles; 9 pair ring outside, 1 pair inside	25
5068648538	centrosome	made of two centrioles; helps rearrange the cytoskeleton for cell division	26
