Nucleolus
Produces ribosomes, found in both animal and plant cells.
Mitochondrion
Produces energy for the cell, found in both animal and plant cells.
Vacuole
Releases cellular waste products, found in both animal and plant cells, typically much larger in plant cells.
Ribosomes
They are where protein synthesis happens, found in both animal and plant cells.
Cell wall
A protective barrier to the cell and helps hold the integrity of it, found in only plant cells.
Cell membrane
A protective barrier, found in both plant and animal cells.
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
A network of vesicles and tubules that transports protein through the cell, found in both animal and plant cells.
Rough endoplasmic reticulum
The same as smooth ER but appears rough due to the ribosomes on its surface, found in both animal and plant cells.
Cytosol
makes all the organelles float inside the cell, found in both animal and plant cells
Chloroplast
Absorbs energy from sunlight and responsible for photosynthesis, only found in plant cells.
Cytoskeleton
Helps maintain the cells shape, found in both animal and plant cells.
Secretory vesicles
Hold cell secretions and are responsible for releasing them, found in both animal and plant cells.
Golgi
Packages macromolecules for transport, found in both plant and animal cells.
Peroxisomes
Responsible for protecting the cell from its own toxic hydrogen peroxide production, found in both animal and plant cells.
Lysosomes
Protect the cell from bacteria, found in animal and plant cells.
Centriole
Produce cilia and serve as the cells skeletal system, found only in animal cells.
Centrosome
Provide structure for the cell and aid in the process of cell division, found in both animal and plant cells.
Nucleus
Controls and regulates the activities within the cell, the brain of the cell, found in both animal and plant cells.
