CELL STRUCTURE VISUALIZATION
Interactive Animated Model of a Eukaryotic Cell
Cell Organelles
Nucleus
The control center of the cell containing DNA. The nucleolus inside produces ribosomal RNA.
Mitochondria
Powerhouse of the cell where cellular respiration occurs. Produces ATP energy through the Krebs cycle.
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Network of membranes involved in protein and lipid synthesis. Rough ER has ribosomes attached.
Golgi Apparatus
Processes, modifies, and packages proteins for secretion or delivery to other organelles.
Lysosomes
Contain digestive enzymes to break down waste materials and cellular debris.
Centrioles
Involved in cell division, organizing microtubules for the mitotic spindle.
