Vacuole: Maintaining a balanced PH level inside the cell and stores waste products.Ribosomes: A protein builder for use by the cell.Peroxisomes: Important for cell health, this takes toxic materials that enter the cell and digests them.Nucleus: This is kind of like the “brain” of the cell because it manages all of the activities of the cell as well as being the home of the DNA.Mitochondria: This changes the oxygen brought into the cell into energy and nutrients.It breaks down the waste into compounds that are simpler for use by other organelles. Lysosomes: This is the cell’s “waste management” system.Golgi apparatus: It has the power to change fats and proteins inside the cell and gets them ready to move outside of the cell or to store them.Endoplasmic reticulum: This makes and moves all of the chemical compounds both from and to the nucleus.Cytoplasm: Is the main method of helping to hold all of the plant cell organelles together.Cell membrane: The enclosure around the cell that controls molecules that are allowed to leave and enter the cell.Organelles common to both Plant and Animal cells and their jobs: Plant cells have 5 plant-cell-specific organelles and animals have 6 animal-cell-specific organelles. Animal-like cells have a lot more variations and abilities in their organelles. However, plant-like cells are constructed for the purpose of photosynthesis only and make use of the rigid wall, along with organelles that work to create energy from sunlight. There are 10 organelles that both plant cells and animal cells have. Plant and animal cells have many of the same types of organelles that work in many of the same ways. In plant-like cells they made a stiff wall in the cell and this helped them to begin getting energy from sunlight. Over more millions of years the inner cell developed a nucleus inside a membrane these cell types are called “eukaryotic” cells. The creation of organelles is thought to have developed when one cell consumed another cell and then they both learned to co-exist together. We still have some of these cells around today and they are called “prokaryotes.” Scientist that study the various cells believe that millions of years ago there was on a single cell that didn’t contain any organelles. There are 16 organelles in animal-like cells and 15 organelles in plant-like cells. The study of “cell theory” helps us to understand each of the organelles in both plant and animal cells and what their jobs are. If any organelle stops doing its function, the entire cell will die. The word “organelle” means “small organ” and these tiny powerhouses do everything from protecting the cell, repairing/healing, assisting in growth, getting rid of waste products….all the way to reproduction.Įach organelle’s job also depends on the other organelles. The organelles of a cell are the internal parts that are responsible for all of the jobs of keeping the cell healthy and living.
