=Animal Cells=

=They are Eukaryotic cells= =EX... Skin cells, Nerve cells, and blood cells.= > ** vacuole ** - fluid-filled the vacuole fills with food being digested and waste material that is on its way out of the cell.
 * ** cell membrane ** - the thin layer of protein and fat that surrounds the cell.
 * ** lysosome ** - This is where the digestion of cell nutrients takes place.
 * ** mitochondrion - ** rod-shaped organelles with a double membrane. The mitochondrion converts the energy stored in glucose into ATP.
 * ** nuclear membrane ** - the membrane that surrounds the nucleus.
 * ** nucleolus ** - it is where ribosomal RNA is produced. Some cells have more than one nucleolus.
 * ** nucleus ** - The nucleus controls many of the functions of the cell and contains DNA, in chromosomes. The nucleus is surrounded by the nuclear membrane.
 * ** ribosome ** - They are the protein builders of the cell.
 * ** rough endoplasmic reticulum ** - Is a cell organelle that helps makes protein synthesis, and helps the packaging of materials into lysosomes.
 * ** smooth endoplasmic reticulum ** - It is important in the creation and storage of steroids. It also stores ions in solution that the cell may need at a later time.
