=**Organelles of a animal cell**=

Nucleus: Contains the cells DNA.

Is the largest organelle and is surrounded by the nuclear envelope. it contains the nucleoplasm and the chromatin. this part of the cell is the boss and controls what the cell does and what of it becomes.

Mitochondria: An organelle in the cytoplasm of cells that functions in energy production.

Cell membrane: The semipermeable membrane enclosing the cytoplasm of a cell.

Cytoplasm: The cell substance between the cell membrane and the nucleus, containing the cytosol, organelles, cytoskeleton, and various particles. Vacuoles:

A membrane-bound cavity within a cell, often containing a watery liquid or secretion.

Endoplasmic reticulum: The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a special membrane structure found only in complex cells. Parts of the ER are studded with ribosomes--the cell's protein-making machinery.

Ribosomes: A tiny, somewhat mitten-shaped organelle occurring in great numbers in the cell cytoplasm either freely, in small clusters, or attached to the outer surfaces of endoplasmic reticula, and functioning as the site of protein manufacture. Lysosomes: A cell organelle containing enzymes that digest particles and that disintegrate the cell after its death.
