plasma membrane
provides communication with other cells and various chemicals, establishes an electrochemical gradient, provides shape and protection, and regulated entrance and exit of materials (selective permeability)
cytosol
serves as the substance in which chemical reactions occur
nucleus
contains genes and therefore controls cellular activities
ribosomes
site of protein synthesis
endoplasmic reticulum (ER)
provides surface area for many types of chemical reactions; ribosomes attached to rough ER synthesize proteins that will be secreted, smooth ER synthesizes lipids and detoxifies certain molecules
golgi complex
processes, sorts, packages, and delivers proteins and lipids for inclusion in the plasma membrane and lysosomes, or for export from the cell; forms lysosomes
lysosomes
digest cell structures and foreign microbes
mitochondria
sites for production of ATP
microfilaments
involved in muscle cell contraction, provide support and shape, assist in cellular and intracellular movement
microtubules
provide support and shape, form intracellular conduction channels, assist in cellular movement,form flagella, cilia, centrioles, and mitotic spindle
intermediate filaments
provide structural reinforcement in some cells
flagella and cilia
allow movement of entire cell (flagella) or movement of particles along surface of cell (cilia)
centrosome and centrioles
centrosome helps organize mitotic spindle during cell division, centrioles form and regenerate flagella and cilia
