Explore the Organelles of the Cell

Did you know there are highways in our cells that transport nutrients and materials for the cell to properly function? We also have IT, manufacturing, and shipping departments in our cells.

Take a tour to explore the different parts of the cell that allow our bodies to function so seamlessly! Learn about the functions of eukaryotic organelles, including the nucleus, nucleolus, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, endosomes, lysosome, mitochondria as well as the role of the cytoskeleton (actin and microtubules) in organizing these organelles.
