• selectively permeable
• allows sufficient passage of oxygen, nutrients and wastes
• found in plant and animal cells

• outer layer that helps main cell shape and protects
• found only in PLANTS

• chromatin: consists of DNA
• nucleolus: produces ribosomes
• nuclear envelope: encloses nucleus

region were the cells microtubules are initiated

ONLY ANIMALS

organelle that makes PROTEINS. 

BOTH plants and animals

organelle active in synthesis, sorting and secretion of cell products

BOTH plants and animals

network of membranous sacs and tubes; active in membrane synthesis and other synthetic and metabolic processes

BOTH plants and animals

organelle where cellular respiration occurs and most ATP is generated

BOTH plants and animals

photosynthetic organelle; converts energy of sunlight to chemical energy stored in sugar molecules

PLANTS ONLY

digestive organelle where macromolecules are hydrolyzed

ANIMALS ONLY

organelle with various specialized metabolic functions; produces hydrogen peroxide

BOTH plants and animals

prominent organelle in older plant cells; functions include: storage, break down of wastes; enlargement of vacuole is a major mechanism of plant growth

PLANTS ONLY

reinforces cell shape; functions in cell movement; components made of protein

BOTH plants and animals

Plants have Cell Wall; Animals don't

Plants have chloroplast; Animals don't
