Organelles all Eukaryotes share
• Nucleus• Ribosomes• Endoplasmic reticulum• Golgi apparatus• Lysosomes• Vacuoles• Mitochondria• Cytoplasm• Cytoskeleton• Cell membrane
While reading through this lecture think of an analogy for the cell – a city, a castle, a factory… that you can relate the jobs of the organelles to. Then use that idea for your left side of your notes.
While reading through this lecture think of an analogy for the cell – a city, a castle, a factory… that you can relate the jobs of the organelles to. Then use that idea for your left side of your notes.
Nucleus• Contains the DNA that holds the genetic
code for making proteins
• The DNA is held on strands called chromosomes
• The nucleus is surrounded by the nuclear envelope
Left side: What would represent the nucleus be in your analogy?
Left side: What would represent the nucleus be in your analogy?
Ribosomes• Ribosomes can float freely in the cytoplasm
or be attached to the endoplasmic reticulum
• They assemble the proteins for the cell
Left side: What would represent the ribosomes be in your analogy?
Left side: What would represent the ribosomes be in your analogy?
Endoplasmic reticulum • Lipids are made in the ER
• Both lipids and proteins are transported through the ER to the outside of the cell.
Left side: What would represent the ER be in your analogy?
Left side: What would represent the ER be in your analogy?
Golgi apparatus • It modifies, sorts, and packages proteins
and other materials
• These materials are either stored in the golgi apparatus or secreted out of the cell
Left side: What would represent the Golgi apparatus be in your analogy?
Left side: What would represent the Golgi apparatus be in your analogy?
Lysosomes• Small organelles filled with enzymes
• The enzymes breakdown large compounds such as lipids, carbohydrates and proteins.
• The cell then reuses the smaller compounds to make new ones (note: “lys” means to cut)
Left side: What would represent the lysosomes be in your analogy?
Left side: What would represent the lysosomes be in your analogy?
Vacuoles & cytoplasm • Vacuoles store water, salt, proteins and Vacuoles store water, salt, proteins and
carbohydrates carbohydrates
• Vacuoles also serve as support structures Vacuoles also serve as support structures in plantsin plants
• The cytoplasm is the fluid that fills the cell The cytoplasm is the fluid that fills the cell in which all the other organelles float. in which all the other organelles float.

Mitochondria • Mitochondria convert chemical energy
stored in food into smaller compounds
• Respiration occurs in the mitochondria
Left side: What would represent the mitochondria be in your analogy?
Left side: What would represent the mitochondria be in your analogy?
Cell membrane & cytoskeleton
• The cell membrane (aka plasma membrane) is the boundary between the cell and it’s environment
• The cytoskeleton is a network of protein filaments that help the cell keep its shape
Left side: What would represent the cell membrane be in your analogy?
Left side: What would represent the cell membrane be in your analogy?
Chloroplasts • Chloroplasts are found only in plant cells
and a few protists
• Photosynthesis, the process that converts solar energy to chemical energy, occurs here

Summary• Draw your analogy (city,
castle, factory…) and write both the name of the organelle and the item that represents it next to each part of the diagram. For example the castle wall would be the the cell membrane.
