Organelles Playlist




We all love cells and their organelles! Learning about cells from pictures and text can be a bit boring and monotonous. A good way to solidify your learning is by listening to these catchy tunes about the different organelles and their functions! Browse through these links and find one that helps you on your quest to learn about cells. 

Vocabulary Words:
Cytoplasm - area between the nucleus and plasma membrane
Endoplasmic Reticulum - System of membranous channels and saccules 
    -Rough ER - has ribosomes; makes proteins that will be used outside of the cell
    -Smooth ER - lacks ribosomes; synthesis of complex carbohydrates and lipids
Golgi Apparatus - receives vesicles (containing proteins and lipids from the smooth ER); packages, processes, and distributes them within the cell; involved in secretion; forms lysosomes
Ribosomes - location where protein synthesis occurs (large and small subunit); can be found alone in cytoplasm, in groups (polyribosomes), or attached to ER (rough ER)
    -Ribosomes in cytoplasm - used by mitochondria and chloroplasts
    -Ribosomes on ER - sent out from cell or become part of cell membrane
