Nuclear envelope w/ pores.plant&animal nucleus A double membrane that surrounds and contains nuclear material. Nuclear pores allowmaterials to leave the nucleus into the cytoplasm of the cell.
NucleolusBoth .Nucleus .Made up of chromatin. It assembles ribosomes.
Chromosome/ ChromatinBoth Nucleus Store genetic information (DNA). Chromatin is DNA wound around protein spools, while chromosomes are tightly coiled chromatin during cell division.
Mitochondria “Powerhouse” BothCytoplasm double-membrane organelle... the site of cellular respiration in the cell. (cellular respiration breaks down glucose to release energy)
•Endoplasmic Reticulum “Internal transport system” Both .Cytoplasm transports material throughout cell.ser manufactures lipids/breaks down toxic substances.RER. important making of proteins due to ribosomes.
