Parts of a Cell and Organelles


What the organelles do: Cells are made up of different parts, called organelles (meaning small organs). it is easier to see the major organelles using simplified diagrams.

Plant Cell: Plant cells have a regular, box-like shape.

Animal cell: Viewed with a microscope, Animal cells usually have irregular shape.

Organelles found in plant cells, but not animal cells: Chloroplast and cell wall.

An organelle is a tiny cellular structure that performs specific functions within a cell. Organelles are embedded within the cytoplasm of eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.

The cell (from Latin cella, meaning "small room") is the basic structural, functional, and biological unit of all known organisms.
