Cell Wall
Found around the cell membrane of a cell
Gives rigidity and strength
Protects from mechanical stress
Permit multicellular organisms to build and hold their
shape
Limits entry of large molecules which may be toxic to
the cell
Helps to retain water
Only found in plant cells
A cell only has one cell wall
You can find
microtubules in the
cytoplasm, cilia, and
flagella.
Microtubules are
important for
maintaining cell
structure, and for
providing
transportation
throughout the cell.
Microtubules are
found in all eukaryotic
cells which include
plant and animal cells.
Depending on the type
of cell, the amount of
microtubules vary.
Scientists have
discovered that there
are ~700 microtubules
in a BSC-1 cells.

Hobbies
Hangout spots
o float just behind
the cell wall.
Extracurricular
activities
o Chloroplasts
are only found in
plant cells
o They perform
photosynthesis
capture light energy
from a light source
and produce energy
in the form of ATP.

o A unicellular plant
cell may have one
large chloroplast,
whereas a leaf-plant
cell may have 20-30
cells.
Favorite Hang-Out:
You can find me in the Cytoplasm near the Mitochondrion

I serve as a digestion compartment for cellular
materials that have exceeded their lifetime or no longer are useful.
I also break down cellular waste products, fats, carbs, and proteins into simple compounds.
Extracurricular Activites: I can be found in both animal and
plant cells but rarely in plant cells
Siblings: There are no definite number of us, it varies
from cell to cell depending on the cell type and the circumstances.

Flagella
Favorite hang out spot: outside the cell body, on one end
(whip-like projection)

detects changes in external chemicals and temperatures
Found in protist cells, bacteria, and eukaryotic sperm cells
(many animals, plants, and even ferns)
Siblings: Usually singular, although there are some cells that
have two or three flagella
Sarmishta Govindhan
Mitochondria-Gunti
Favorite Hang Out Spot:
cytoplasm in the Animal cell, and
the same in the plant cell just that
it surrounds the central vacuole,
the nucleus and the other parts of
the cell.
Siblings: depends on the cell
and its job.
Extracurricular Activities: Found in
most eukaryotic cells , all animal cells, all
plant cells
Hobbies: It's main function is to produce
ATP. Also called the power house of the
cell. Breaks down sugar.
Murali Gunti
Period:5
Favorite Hang-Out Spot: In animal cells I stay toward the outer
part inside the cell and in a plant cell I stay more towards the
middle I am not an outsider, totally an insider organelle.
Hobbies: Temporarily stores water and other nutrients I guess
you could say its hard for me to stay committed.
Extracurricular Activities: Found in all plant and animal cells, I
have so much to do on the weekends, but I can pencil you in
between loads.
Siblings: In plant cells I am an only child and in animal cells I
have siblings and it is dysfunctional family.
Christina Hayduchok 5
The Nucleus
Favorite Hang-Out Spot: in the
middle of a cell
Hobbies: stores DNA and genetic
information.
Creates a long fiber called
Chromatin by combining long
strands of DNA with special
proteins, which is used to make
Chromosomes.
Extracurricular Activities: all
animal cells, plant cells and
eukaryotic cells
Siblings: Only Child
Sruthi Jana
Pr.5
Chromosome Jones
Favorite Hang-Out Spot: The
chromosome is located in the nucleus of
the cell.
Hobbies: The chromosome is either a threadlike
linear strand or a circular strand of DNA in bacteria
that contains the hereditary information necessary for
cell life.
Extracurricular Activities: There are
chromosomes in every type of cell (plant
and animal)
Siblings: Most body cells contain 46
chromosomes in 23 pairs.

Period 5
Ribosome
 Favorite Hang-out spot:
Ribosomes can be found in
both prokaryotes and
eukaryotes. They are also
found within the cell
 Hobbies: Ribosomes are
responsible for assembling
the proteins of the cell.
 Extracurricular Activities:
Ribosomes are found in all
types of cells.
 Siblings: There are
approximately 15,000
ribosome in a single cell.
Although their no. varies
from cell to cell and found
maximum in embryonic
cells

Favorite Hang Out Spot: Me and the Girlies love the Outer
Layer of Cell, its where the cool kids hang.
Hobbies: Small particles (< ~40kDa) are able to pass through
my complex by passive diffusion.
Extracurricular Activities: I am found in all vertebrate cells,
meaning I am found in all animal cells.
Siblings: I have a lot of siblings! There are about on average
2000 nuclear pore complexes in the nuclear envelope of a
vertebrate cell, but it varies depending on cell type and the
stage in the life cycle.
Nadia Nidam, 5
Nuclear Pore- Nidam
Cytoplasm
Hang out Spot- The cytoplasm is
found inside the cell membrane,
surrounding the nuclear envelope and
the cytoplasmic organelles. Basically
the substance that fills the entire cell.
Hobbies- its job is to store nutrition
and important chemicals for the cell.
Extracurricular Activities- Can be in
an animal cell or a plant cell.
Siblings- Only one... Cytoplasm is a
liquid, there is only one, but as water
comes into the cell (through osmosis)
more of it can be made

plant cells but there are not as many Golgi
bodies found in animal cells.
