Cell Organelles

Front

The organelle that is the control center of the cell and contains nearly all of the cell’s DNA:

Back

Nucleus

Front

The organelle that assembles proteins in the cytoplasm:

Back

Ribosome

Front

The organelle where lipids are synthesized along with proteins and other materials that are exported from the cell:

Back

Endoplasmic Reticulum

Front

The organelle that modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and other materials from the ER for storage in the cell or release from the cell:

Back

Golgi Apparatus

Front

The organelles that store materials like water, salts, proteins, and carbohydrates, and the other one that stores and moves materials between cell organelles, as well as to and from the cell surface:

Back

Vacuoles and Vesicles

Front

The organelle that breaks down lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins into small molecules that can be used by the rest of the cell:

Back

Lysosome

Front

The organelle that helps the cell maintain its shape and is also involved in movement:

Mitochondrion

,

Lysosome

,

Cytoskeleton

,

Cell Membrane

Back

Cytoskeleton

Front

The organelle that captures the energy from sunlight and converts it into chemical energy stored in food during photosynthesis:

Back

Chloroplast

Front

The organelle that converts the chemical energy stored in food molecules into compounds that are more convenient for the cell to use:

Back

Mitochondrion

Front

The organelle that acts as a strong supportive wall that shapes and protects the cell:

Options: Cell Membrane, Cell Wall, Cytoskeleton, Centrioles
