CELL STRUCTURE & FUNCTION: HUMAN CELL

PARTS OF THE CELL FUNCTIONS


Centrioles Centrioles are paired barrel-shaped organelles
located in the cytoplasm of animal cells near
the nuclear envelope and play a role in organizing
microtubules that serves as the cell’s skeletal
system and also have the role to locate the
nucleus and other organelle’s location within cell.
Centrosome It has a role on cell division and they maintain the
chromosome number during cell division. They
also stimulate the changes in the shape of the cell
membrane by phagocytosis. In mitosis, it helps in
organizing the microtubules ensuring that the
centrosomes are distributed to each daughter cell.
Mitochondria (double membrane) The ‘power houses’ of the cell. Glucose used as fuel to
create ATP for storage of energy which is released
when required
Cytoplasm is responsible for holding the components of the
cell and protects them from damage, It also stores
the molecules required for cellular processes and
is also responsible for giving the cell its shape.
Ribosomes The protein factories of the cell, translate RNA into
protein. When loose in cytoplasm, forms proteins for
use within the cell
Secretory granules Secretory granules contain specific proteins and
other macromolecules that are destined for
secretion into the extracellular space. This slide
shows secretory granules in pancreatic acinar
cells
Golgi body (apparatus) ‘Packages’ proteins within membrane as vesicles,
stored, then exported through cell (plasma) membrane
Endoplasmic reticulum is a large, dynamic structure that serves many
roles in the cell including calcium storage, protein
synthesis and lipid metabolism The diverse
functions of the ER are performed by distinct
domains; consisting of tubules, sheets, and the
nuclear envelope.
Rough Endoplasmic reticulum is bounded by the ribosomes and also stores
proteins.
Smooth Endoplasmic reticulum is known for stocking the lipids and proteins. It is
not bounded by ribosomes.
Nucleolus is a spherical structure found in the cell's nucleus
whose primary function is to produce and
assemble the cell's ribosomes.
Nuclear Membrane separates the nucleus from the cytoplasm and
helps to protect its contents, the DNA of the cell.
Nucleus Contains genetic information within DNA of
chromosomes of the cell; provides the template
(RNA) for protein formation. Controls activities of
the cell
Cell (Plasma) Membrane Controls movement of substances, ions, and
nutrients into, and waste products out of, the cell
thus determining composition of cytoplasm (cell
contents excluding organelles)
