Just like our bodies have different organs that perform certain functions for our body, cells have different parts that perform certain functions for the cell. These are called organelles. An Animal Cell We will look at animal cells and plant cells. Many organelles are contained in both animal and plant cells, but some are present only in plant cells. We’ll (click) start by looking at animal cells. Cell Membrane A layer that protects and surrounds cells. It controls substances that flow in and out of the cell.
