A Mitochondria is known as the power house of the cell. It is the site of cellular respiration which is the release of chemical energy from food. It has a double membrane which is a pliable sheet like structure acting as a boundry that keeps protein assembly lines together for efficient energy production. by Jack Valentine

Ribosomes are the protein builders or the protein synthesizers of the cell. They connect one amino acid at a time to build long chains. They are found in many places around the cell. Some float in the cytoplasm others are found on the endoplasmic retculum.

The Cytoplasm [also known as cytosol] is like a jellylike shield protecting the nucleus and all the organelles. It is the part of the cell that fills all the extra space in the cell. It is the part that makes the organelles move around safely. The cytoplasm is in both animal and plant cells.It is closed in by the cell\plasma membrane. It is the site where the most cellular activities occur.Scientists used to call cytoplasm, protoplasm. Early on, they didn't know about the many different types of fluids in the cell. Today, there are only 2 liquids left in the cell called the cytoplasm and the nucleoplasm.

** //A nucleus// needs and has the nuclear envelope, nucleolus, chromatin, and nucleoplasm. It's function is to instruct DNA to be copied. The cell's nucleus acts like the brain of the cell. It helps control eating, moving, and reproduction. The nucleus knows pretty much everything that happens in the cell. The nucleus is not always in the center of the cell. It can be a dark spot somewhere in the middle of all of the cytoplasm. ** **__By Eric Meskin__**

Lyrics:chorus: The cell is complicated, don't act like a nucleus and don't control everything The cell is complicated, don't act like a nucleus and don't control everything yeah! You know the ER can't package everything, the cell wall protects you from viruses I'm not messin' with ya, you just have to be on top of the mitochondria, its the power house of thecell and you know it very well. The cell is complicated, don't act like a nucleus and don't control everything The cell is complicated, don't act like a nucleus and don't control everything yeah! The ribosomes can't be the big builders and the vacuoles can't be the storage bubbles, and don't forget the chloroplast the jello of the cell You know I have all these troubles so lets not make it double, so now lets end the true story of the living cell!


 * Vacuoles ** are found in cells. They are found in both plant and animal cells, but much bigger in plant cells. Vacuoles might store food or any variety of nutrients for them to survive. The structure of the vacuole is simple. There is a membrane that surrounds a mass fluid. In that fluid are nutrients or waste products. Plants may also use vacuoles to store water. They are closely related to objects called vesicles that are found throughout the cell. ** By Eric Meskin **

The cell\plasma membrane is the barrier behind the cell wall. It protects and seals in the organelles. It also keeps in the cytoplasm which fills in the extra space in the cell. It keeps the shape of the cell. It controls the things that come in the cell and what comes out of the cell. It surrounds all cells in the world. It is semi-permable, controlling the motion of the substances in and out of the cell. It is in both animal and plant cells.

__**Cell Wall​**__

Marin Sheridan **
 * The cell wall protects the inside of a plant cell from getting a physical injury so nothing can hurt it. Its a nonliving structure that surounds the plant cell, the cell wall also provides skeletal support. It is made up of special sugars called cellulose. The cell wall acts like a frame, so the plant cell will survive. The cell wall can only be found in the plant cell not the animal cell. **

__**Chloroplast**__
 * Chloroplast is a structure where energy from the suns light is used to make sugar. It has a double layer of modified membrane that contains protein and liquid. The chloroplast is a cell that photosythesis takes place. It also contains chlorophyll. All chloroplasts are organells, and the chloroplast can capture lights energy so it can conserve free energy. The chloroplasts are also food producers for the plant cell, and this cell can only be found in the plant cell not the animal cell.**

__Golgi Apparatus__ The structure of golgi apparatus is fattened stacks of sacs from the unit membrane. In most cells there is a golgi apparatus. A golgi apparatus is a packaging organelle. There are tiny vesicles that have secret chemicals. They may produce Endoplasic Reticulum. The golgi apparatus has only one membrane. The layers of membrane look like the rough part of endoplasic reticulum,but they have a very different function.

__Endoplasic Reticulum (ER)__ The structure of endoplasic reticulum has a smooth part and rough part. The rough part is surrounded by Ribosomes. The smooth plays different functions. There is a large surface for the organization of chemicals in the ER. While ER acts as a packaging system,the nucleus acts like the cells brain. The ER works closely with Golgi Apparatus and Ribosomes.Found through the whole cell it creates a network a membranes. Depending on the cells function the ER can look different from cell to cell.

Lysosmes are organelles that contain enyzymes. The lysosmes brake large molecules into small molecules. They brake up food so it will be easier to digest.Lysosmes are found in both plant and animal cells, and it's a type of vacuole, which holds chemicals. The chemicals are what brakes everything down. It also brakes down old cell parts too.
