Function of animal cell parts

Answer 1

An animal cell is a form of eukaryotic cell that makes up many tissues in animals. The animal cell is distinct from other eukaryotes, most notably plant cells, as they lack cell walls and chloroplasts, and they have smaller vacuoles. Due to the lack of a rigid cell wall, animal cells can adopt a variety of shapes, and a phagocytic cell can even engulf other structures. There are many different cell types. For instance, there are approximately 210 distinct cell types in the adult human body.

Answer 2

1. Cell Membrane: regulates the passage of substances in and out of the cell.
2. Nucleus: controls the cell's activities and contains genetic material (DNA).
3. Mitochondria: produce energy (ATP) for the cell through cellular respiration.
4. Endoplasmic Reticulum: involved in protein and lipid synthesis.
5. Golgi Apparatus: processes and packages proteins for secretion.
6. Lysosomes: contain enzymes that break down waste materials.
7. Cytoplasm: where most cellular activities take place.

Answer 3

the function of an animal cell is to transport blood and protect the animal.

the person who originally answered this thought it had something to do with animal reproduction.

he was an idiot.

Answer 4

Cells have different parts in them that perform different functions. Some control what goes in and out of the cell and some carries different substances to the cell, like protein. Cells are the basic building blocks of life.

Answer 5

Nucleus- Controls the activities of the cell. Also contains genetic materials.

Nucleolus- Nucleoli are formed around specific genetic loci called

Nucleolar Organizing Regions (NOR's), Because of this non-random organization, the nucleolus is defined as a "genetically determined element."

Nucleoplasm- The nucleoplasm is a highly viscous liquid that surrounds the chromosomes and nucleoli.

Mitochondria- Mitochondria are sometimes described as "cellular power plants" because they generate most of the cell's supply of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), used as a source of chemical energy.

Plastids- Plastids are the site of manufacture and storage of important chemical compounds used by the cell.

Golgi Bodies- The primary function of the Golgi apparatus is to process and package macromolecules, such as proteins and lipids, after their synthesis and before they make their way to their destination; it is particularly important in the processing of proteins for secretion.

Endo Plasmic Reticulum- These structures are responsible for several specialized functions: protein translation, folding and transport of proteins to be used in the cell membrane (e.g. transmembrane receptors and other integral membrane proteins), or to be secreted (exocytosed) from the cell (e.g. digestive enzymes); sequestration of calcium; and production and storage of glycogen, steroids, and other macromolecules.

Ribosomes- The ribosome functions in the expression of the genetic code from nucleic acid into protein, in a process called translation.

Lysosomes- They digest excess or worn-out organelles, food particles, and engulfed viruses or bacteria. The membrane surrounding a lysosome allows the digestive enzymes to work at the 4.5 pH they require.

Centrosomes- The centrosome is an organelle that serves as the main microtubule organizing center (MTOC) of the animal cell as well as a regulator of cell-cycle progression.

Vacuoles- Vacuoles are essentially enclosed compartments which are filled with water containing inorganic and organic molecules including various enzymes in solution.

Answer 7

Parts of an Animal Cell

Cell membrane: holds the organelles inside the cell

Cytoplasm: physically supports the organelles and allows food and oxygen

to pass through it to the organelles

Ribosomes: help make proteins

Golgi apparatus: combines proteins and delivers them to the rest of the cell and

outside the cell

Endoplasmic reticulum: makes proteins

Mitochondria: break down food particles and release their stored energy

Nucleus: controls the activities of the cell

Vacuoles: store excess food, waste, and other substances

Lysosomes: break down food and digest wastes

Answer 8

Nucleus : controls activities happening in the cell

Cytoplasm : site where most chemical reactions take place

Cell membrane : controls substances leaving or entering the cell

Vacuole : storage area for air , food and water

Answer 9

Parts of an animal cell, which are also known as organelles are told their job by the nucleus. They then carry out these jobs with the help of the other organelles.

Answer 10

There are many parts. One part is the nucleus, which is the control center of the cell and the Golgi bodies which holds the proteins.
