Cell structure and function

Small, round cell structure containing chemicals that break down large food particles into smaller ones.

• Ribosome

• Vacuole

• Lysosome

• Flagellum

Projection that moves prokaryote through its environment.

• Golgi Body

• Organelle

• Mitochondria

• Flagellum

A rigid layer of nonliving material that surrounds the cells of plants and some other organisms.

• Cell Wall

• Cytoplasm

• Ribosome

Information that directs all of the cell's functions.

• Genetic Material

• Mitochondria

• Chloroplast

• Lysosome

Sac inside a cell that acts as a storage area.

• Vacuole

• Endoplasmic Reticulum

• Chloroplast

Outside cell boundary that controls which substances can enter or leave the cell.

• Cytoplasm

• Chloroplast

• Cell Wall

• Cell Membrane

Tiny cell structures that carry out a specific function within the cell.

• Golgi Body

Small, grain-like structure in the cytoplasm of a cell where proteins are made.
