are organelles only found in humans?

Every cell in your body contains organelles (structures that have specific functions). Just like organs in the body, each organelle contributes in its own way to helping the cell function well as a whole. The nucleus, mitochondria and chloroplasts are all organelles. Some organelles are found only in some cell types.

While a structure such as a nucleus is only found in eukaryotes, every cell needs ribosomes to manufacture proteins. Since there are no membrane-bound organelles in prokaryotes, the ribosomes float free in the cytosol. ... Endoplasmic reticulum with attached ribosomes is called rough ER. It looks bumpy under a microscope.

organelle found only in plant cell is chloroplast .

They can be prokaryotic and lack defined organelles or eukaryotic, like humans, and have membrane-bound organelles including a nucleus.

However, mitochondria and chloroplasts can not exist as fully independent organelles as because their functions and activities are partially controlled by the nucleus of the cell. Also, these organelles have to depend on the cytoplasm for the availability of materials required for their proper functioning.

Mitochondria -- the “power plants” of both animal and plant cells -- and chloroplasts -- photosynthesis centers found only in plants -- are both examples of specialized eukaryotic cell compartments. These cell compartments are referred to as organelles.

An organelle is a subcellular structure that has one or more specific jobs to perform in the cell, much like an organ does in the body. Among the more important cell organelles are the nuclei, which store genetic information; mitochondria, which produce chemical energy; and ribosomes, which assemble proteins.

Ribosomes are either located in the liquid inside the cell called the cytoplasm or attached to the membrane. They can be found in both prokaryote (bacteria) and eukaryote (animals and plants) cells. Ribosomes are a type of organelle. ... Other organelles include the nucleus and the mitochondria.

This organelle is only found in animal cells not plant cells. ... In contrary, there are organelles that plant cells have that animal cells do not; such as plastids (leucoplasts, chromoplasts, and chloroplasts), a central vacuole, and a cell wall. A central vacuole is needed to store water for the plant to live.

Eukaryotic cells contain membrane-bound organelles, including a nucleus. ... Prokaryotic cells do not contain a nucleus or any other membrane-bound organelle. Prokaryotes include two groups: bacteria and another group called archaea. Having organelles is a big deal for a cell.

While a structure such as a nucleus is only found in eukaryotes, every cell needs ribosomes to manufacture proteins. Since there are no membrane-bound organelles in prokaryotes, the ribosomes float free in the cytosol. Ribosomes are found in many places around a eukaryotic cell.

An organelle is an organized and specialized structure within a living cell. The organelles include the nucleus, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, vacuoles, lysosomes, mitochondria, and, in plants, chloroplasts. Triple membrane bound- organelles are also present.

Chloroplasts are the food producers of the cell. The organelles are only found in plant cells and some protists such as algae. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts. Chloroplasts work to convert light energy of the Sun into sugars that can be used by cells.

Eukaryotes sex cell and prokaryotes cell both have flagella, organelle that helps the cell move. ... Eukaryotes have many organelles in cells such as mitochondria, golgi, lysosomes.... besides ribosomes, there is no organelles in prokaryotes. Prokaryotic cell on average are usually ten times smaller than eukaryotic cell.

While a structure such as a nucleus is only found in eukaryotes, every cell needs ribosomes to manufacture proteins. Since there are no membrane-bound organelles in prokaryotes, the ribosomes float free in the cytosol. ... Other ribosomes are found on the endoplasmic reticulum.

In addition to the nucleus, eukaryotic cells may contain several other types of organelles, which may include mitochondria, chloroplasts, the endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi apparatus, and lysosomes.
358805
Both the chloroplast and the mitochondrion are organelles found in the cells of plants, but only mitochondria are found in animal cells. The function of chloroplasts and mitochondria is to generate energy for the cells in which they live.
