Classification of Cell Organelles

Organelles without membrane: The cell wall, ribosomes, and cytoskeleton are non-membrane-bound cell organelles. They are present both in the prokaryotic cell and the eukaryotic cell.

Single membrane-bound organelles: Vacuole, lysosome, Golgi apparatus, and endoplasmic reticulum are single membrane-bound organelles present only in a eukaryotic cell.

Double membrane-bound organelles: Nucleus, mitochondria, and chloroplast are double membrane-bound organelles present only in a eukaryotic cell.

Let us learn more in detail about the different cell organelles in brief.
