Cell Organelles, Cell Transport, Cell Theory, Cell Membrane

Which organelle is known as the "brain" or "control center" of the cell and controls the cell's activities and processes.

• mitochondria
• ribosome
• nucleolus
• nucleus

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

This organelle is the storage facility in a cell. Plant cells usually contain one large one and animal cells may contain many small ones.

• vacuole
• cytoplasm
• lysosome
• chloroplast

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

This small organelle is found inside of the nucleus and produces ribosomes.

• nuclear membrane
• Golgi bodies
• nucleolus
• lysosome

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

These tiny organelles are the "factories" of the cell and make proteins.

• mitochondria
• ribosome

• lysosome
• chloroplast

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

These organelles are found in the cells of autotrophs and capture sunlight to convert it into food for the cell.

• cell wall
• cell membrane
• mitochondria
• chloroplast

NGSS.MS-LS1-6

Each part of a cell that performs a specific function inside the cell is called an __________.

• atom
• organ
• organelle
• system

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

These organelles are known as the "post office" of the cell for packaging and distributing materials throughout the cell.

• lysosomes
• Golgi bodies
• ribosomes
• vacuoles

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

This organelle is similar to a "clean up crew" or "recycling crew" in a cell. It breaks down large particles and recycles old cell parts.

• lysosome
• centriole
• Golgi bodies
• mitochondrion

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

This organelle produces energy for the cell during cellular respiration and is known as the "powerhouse" of the cell.

• cytoplasm
• nucleolus
• nucleus
• mitochondrion

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

NGSS.MS-LS1-7

This clear gel like fluid fills in the space between the cell organelles.

• chromatin
• cytoplasm
• chloroplast
• chlorophyll
