“The classical cell theory was proposed by Theodor
Schwann in 1839. There are three parts to this theory.
The first part states that all organisms are made of
cells. The second part states that cells are the basic
units of life. These parts were based on a conclusion
made by Schwann and Matthias Schleiden in 1838, after
comparing their observations of plant and animal cells.
The third part, which asserts that cells come from
preexisting cells that have multiplied, was described
by Rudolf Virchow in 1858, when he stated omnis cellula
e cellula (all cells come from cells).”

1. Centriole - involved in cell division; helps in the formation of spindle fibers that separate chromosomes during mitosis.
2. Cytosol/Cytoplasm - the jelly-like fluid inside the cell that holds the organelles and is the site of many metabolic reactions.
3. Cytoskeleton - a network of fibers that provides structural support for the cell, aids in cell movement, and helps transport materials within
the cell.
4. Nuclear DNA - contains the genetic blueprint for the organism.
5. Golgi body / Golgi apparatus - modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids for storage or transport out of the cell.
6. Lysosome - contains digestive enzymes that break down waste materials, cellular debris, and foreign invaders like bacteria.
7. Cell membrane - a semi-permeable membrane that surrounds the cell, providing protection and structure, and controlling the movement of
substances in and out of the cell.
8. Mitochondrion - known as the powerhouse of the cell, mitochondria generate most of the cell's supply of ATP (energy) through cellular
respiration.
9. Nucleolus - a structure within the nucleus responsible for producing and assembling ribosome components.
10. Nucleus - contains the cell's genetic material (DNA) and controls the cell's activities by regulating gene expression; acts as the command
center of the cell.
11. Peroxisome - contains enzymes that break down fatty acids and amino acids and detoxify certain chemicals.
12. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) - studded with ribosomes and involved in protein synthesis and processing.
13. Ribosomes - small structures that are the site of protein synthesis; they can be found floating freely in the cytoplasm or attached to the
endoplasmic reticulum.
14. Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) - lacks ribosomes and is involved in lipid synthesis and detoxification processes.
15. Vesicle - small membrane-bound sacs that transport and store substances within the cell and can also aid in transporting materials to and
from the cell surface.
16. Amyloplast (starch storage organelle)- an organelle in some plant cells that stores starch.
17. Vacuole - it's the "warehouse" in a cell that stores food and waste products.
18. Chloroplast - it is the spot of photosynthesis where energy is made for plant cells.
19. Cell Wall - a thick, rigid membrane that surrounds a plant cell that supports and creates the shape of a cell.
