Fungal cells have a lot of the same organelles as animal and plant cells. They have for example a cell wall as the plant cell but they don't have chloroplasts. 

The Fungal Cell

Cell Membrane


The cell membrane decides what may enter and leave the cell. It is made of out phosphor lipids and protein. 

Ribosomes

 

The ribosomes are the site of protein production. They are found in the cytoplasm.

Cytoplasm

 

The cytoplasm is the liquid part of the cell and it consists mainly of water. A lot of the cell's chemical reactions occur in the cyto-plasm.

Nucleus


The nucleus contains the DNA. The nucleus also controls everything which take place inside the. 

Mitochondria

 

The mitochondria are the power stations of the cell. The majority of the respiration chemical reactions take place in the mitchondria. The mitochindria are found in the cytoplasm.

Cell Wall

 

The cell wall is made of cellulose fibres. The cell wall allows the cell to fill with water without bursting and provides structure to the cell and to the plant.
