Different Types of Cells
There are two categories of cells:
Eukaryotes & Prokaryotes
Prokaryotes
Bacteria
Prokaryotes are cells,
but they don’t have a
nucleus. They still
have DNA though, its
just bunched up in the
middle of the cell.
Bacteria is a
prokaryotic cell.
Paramecium
Eukaryotes
Red Blood Cells
Eukaryotes have a
nucleus which is the
only difference
between them and a
prokaryote. Plant,
animal, and fungi
cells are all
eukaryotes.
Nerve cells
Plant and Animal
cells
The main types of eukaryotes are plant and
animal cells. Plant cells are in plants and
animal cells are found in all animals (pretty
self explanatory). Both have the same
function for each living thing: to keep it
alive. The only difference is on the inside.
Plant cells have plastids, a vacuole, and a
cell wall. Animal cells have centrioles and
lysosomes that plant cells don’t have.

Cell Nucleus
The cell nucleus is found
only in eukaryotic cells.
Usually it is round and the
largest part of the cell. It
stores the DNA which
stores genetic information
of the cell. The nucleus is
made up of three main
parts, the nucleolus, the
nuclear envelope, and the
chromatin. text from
Analogy of Cell Nucleus
If the cell was your
body, then ...
the cell nucleus would
function as your brain,
which sends
information out to the
rest of your body
(ribosomes) in order to
create important things
(proteins) to keep you
alive and healthy.
Cell Nucleus
The Nuclear Envelope
Surrounding the nucleus is
a thin membrane
punctured with holes called
nuclear pores that allow
specific communication in
and out of the nucleus
almost like a security
guard.
Cell Wall
Cell walls maintain the cell’s shape, the
direction of growth, and provide structural
support. Not all living things have cell walls.
Plant cells have a lot of chemicals added
into their cell walls such as cellulose and
lignin (for plant structure). The cell wall is
located outside the plasma membrane.
text from
Cell Wall
Structure
- non-living and composed of cellulose
- cellulose fibrils created in alternating
layers for strength
- has pits that make it penetrable

Mitochondria
In the cell mitochondria are the main power
generators. They convert oxygen and nutrients
into energy for the cell to perform everyday
functions.
Inside a Mitochondria
Mitochondria are
shaped like a bean
and have two
membranes. The
inner membrane is
where most of the
energy is made.
How Mitochondria Make Energy
“There's a slow fire in the mitochondria that
takes the oxygen and nutrients and burns
it all up to create energy," Teitelbaum says.
The mitochondria's inner walls are coated
with energy-making chemical reactors that
take the fuel and pull it apart. Resulting in
energy (ATP). text from.
ATP
Vacuoles
Vacuoles are like sacks
that hold water, salt,
protein, and
carbohydrates in a
cell. They’re in all
plant cells and some
animal cells have
small vacuoles.
What Else Vacuoles Do
Some small vacuoles are
involved in transporting
substances in the cell,
they’re called vesicles.
Flowers are their own
colors because the liquid
in the vacuole is that
color. Also, lemons taste
sour because the liquid in
the vacuole is sour. Same
goes for sweet plants.
How vacuoles help keep plant
structure
When you water a plant
the water is taken up
by the plant cells
vacuoles. When the
vacuoles are full it
presses against the
cell wall and the plant
can then stand up
straight. That’s why a
plant that hasn’t been
watered is wilted. text
from
Endoplasmic
Rectum (ER)
The endoplasmic rectum is
where lipids and other
nutrients are made and
modified. Its also involved
in transporting material
through the cell either to
parts that need it or to the
Golgi apparatus. There
are two different sections
(smooth and rough) of the
endoplasmic reticulum.
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
The only reason this section is called “rough” is
that there are Ribosomes covering the whole
surface. These Ribosomes put the proteins
they’ve made into the endoplasmic reticulum.
Inside the protein is chemically modified.
Ribosomes

Endoplasmic
Reticulum
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
Smooth ER
Rough ER
This section of the endoplasmic reticulum has
nothing on the surface so its called “smooth.” Its
in charge of packaging protein for transportation
through the cell . Its also in charge of combining
lipids and releasing calcium.
Golgi Apparatus
After the proteins leave
the endoplasmic
reticulum they go to
the Golgi apparatus
or Golgi complex.
Here carbohydrates
are connected to the
lipids and proteins
from the ER then sent
off the its final
destination.
What the Golgi Complex Does
Has five to eight,
membrane-covered sacs
called cisternae that look
like a stack of deflated
balloons. Inside the Golgi
complex modifies
proteins and lipids that
have been built in the ER
and prepares them for
shipping outside of the
cell or to other locations
in the cell.
How Protein gets to and from the
Golgi Complex
There are little vesicles that can attach and detach to the
Golgi complex. They go to the ER, attach themselves,
take in the proteins and lipids ready to be transported,
then go back to the Golgi complex. There it fuses to the
Golgi membrane and drops off the “goods” it has. Inside
the Golgi complex acts like a factory and tweaks the
proteins to fit where they will be sent to. Like a post
office putting things in special boxes to fit where its going
and what it is. Then another vesicle picks it up and will
send it to either another part of the cell or to the outside
of the cell for use elsewhere.

Ribosomes
Protein is what all cells are made out of;
many amino acids make up one protein.
So Ribosomes are very important to cells
since they take in the amino acids and put
them together to make, the basic building
blocks of all cells, proteins. Ribosomes are
the smallest part of a cell, but there are the
most of them.
The Structure of a Ribosome
RNA gives the instructions for
building proteins and brings the
amino acids to the ribosome
Ribosomes have no
membrane and
disassembled into two
subunits when not
actively making
protein. About 40
percent of a ribosome
is protein and the
other 60 percent is
RNA.
How Ribosomes Do It
REALLY
COOL
ribosome
Movie
(It’s a must see)
The ribosome reads the tRNA one
code at a time, adding protein
building blocks one by one.
The building blocks are made
up of amino acids attached to
transfer RNA (tRNA)
molecules. For every code in
the mRNA, there is another
tRNA molecule that fits it
exactly. As the ribosome
moves along the mRNA, it
selects the correct tRNA
molecules. Each tRNA brings
with it the correct amino acid,
which the ribosome then adds
to the growing protein,
releasing the tRNA at the
same time.
Cytoplasm
Cytoplasm is the
gelatin-like fluid inside
the cell. It acts as a
cushion for all the
different parts so that
they don’t bump into
and break each other.
Cytoplasm consists of
mainly water, but
some salt and other
organic molecules.
Analogy of Cytoplasm
If cytoplasm was a stew
then....
all the other parts of
the cell (mitochondria,
vacuoles, Ribosomes,
Golgi apparatus,
endoplasmic
reticulum, etc.) would
be the carrots, broth,
meat, beans, and
other ingredients in
the stew.
Lysosomes
Lysosomes are produced
in the Golgi apparatus.
They find and break down
foreign invaders (such as
bacteria) so they might be
able to be used again. Or
if they find the invader to
be really harmful, then
they will destroy it and
remove it from the cell.
text and pictures from
Analogy of Lysosomes
Lysosomes are almost like the entire
police force keeping the city safe and in
order. If they find someone extremely
(possibly bacteria), they will put that
person in jail (removing it from the cell).
Plasma Membrane
The plasma membrane controls the
movement of substances in and out of a cell.
It is a little penetrable so some things cross
easier than others.
Even with an electron
microscope you can't
actually see the detailed
structure of a plasma
membrane because it's
too thin.
text from
Plastids
Plastids only are in plant
cells and photosynthetic
organisms. They are in the
cytoplasm and have a
double membrane
surrounding them. The
number of plastids in a cell
varies depending on the
environmental conditions
and how the plant adjusts to
them and the type of species
the plant is.
text from
Plastids
Plastids store molecules like pigments (which give fruits
and vegetables an orange or red color when they are
ripe). They also store photosynthetic products taken
during the summer and are stored for the winter and
spring. They are very important for the storage of
starch. Foods with a lot of starch contain many plastids.
Potatoes have a lot of plastids.

Centrioles
Centrioles are found in most
animal cells and come in pairs.
They are made of short
microtubules that are arranged
like a barrel. The two centrioles
are positioned at right angles.
During cell division, each
centriole moves to the opposite
sides of the cell and may
function in cell division. They
are found at the base of cilia
and flagella (both are used for
cellular motion) .
