what are cell organelles ?
Answers
⭕CELL ORGANELLES :
Cell organelles are the internal organs of a cell responsible for carrying out specific jobs to keep the cell alive.
◽Cell Organelles are much like organs in our body. Each one has a specific job to complete for the cell. And, if one organelle within the cell stops completing its job, then the cell will die.
◽ EXAMPLE : vacuole, lysosome, Golgi Apparatus, Endoplasmic Reticulum etc. They are present only in a eukaryotic cell.

Animal Cell Organelles

Animal cell diagram with each organelle labeled
Cell Membrane – Protects the cell and regulates molecules entering and leaving the cell
Cytoplasm – Helps hold the cell’s organelles in place
Nucleus – Stores the DNA and coordinates the cell’s activities, basically, it is the brain
Ribosomes – Build protein for the cell to use
Lysosomes – Break down waste into simple compounds for other organelles to use
Mitochondria – Convert oxygen and nutrients into energy
Endoplasmic Reticulum – Manufactures and transports chemical compounds to and from the nucleus
Golgi Apparatus – Modifies proteins and fats built in the cell and prepares them for storage or transports them outside the cell
Peroxisomes – Digest toxic materials in the cell
Vacuole – Stores waste products and maintains the PH level of the cell
Centrioles – Help the cell divide during mitosis and meiosis
Secretory Vesicles – Releases materials from the cell, usually waste from the cell
Microvilli – Absorb nutrients for the cell and help with cell movement
Cytoskeleton – Provides structural support for the cell
Microtubules – Provide structural support for the cytoskeleton and connect to chromosomes during cell division
Microfilaments – Provide structural support for the cytoskeleton
Plant Cell Organelles

Cell Membrane – Protects the cell and regulates molecules entering and leaving the cell
Cell Wall – Main protection barrier of plant cells
Cytoplasm – Helps hold the cell’s organelles in place
Cytoskeleton – Provides structural support for the cell
Chloroplast – Converts sunlight to energy by a process called photosynthesis
Nucleus – Stores the DNA and coordinates the cell’s activities, basically, it is the brain
Ribosomes – Build protein for the cell to use
Lysosomes – Break down waste into simple compounds for other organelles to use
Mitochondria – Convert oxygen and nutrients into energy
Endoplasmic Reticulum – Manufactures and transports chemical compounds to and from the nucleus
Golgi Apparatus – Modifies proteins and fats built in the cell and prepares them for storage or transports them outside the cell
Peroxisomes – Digest toxic materials in the cell
Vacuole – Stores waste products and maintains the PH level of the cell
Plasmodesmata – Enables transport of material and communication to adjacent cells
Vesicle – Transports materials within the cell and help store enzymes
