The Cell

The organelles where cellular energy is produced, providing the energy needed to power chemical reactions.

• nucleus

• cell membrane

• mitochondria

• ribosome

Storage centers for the cell

• mitochondria

• nucleus

• ribosome

• vacuole

contains the genetic material (DNA), the information needed to build thousands of proteins.

• nucleus

• ribosome

• cytoskeleton

• lysosome

These structures have digestive enzymes that break down old molecules into parts that can be recycled.

• nucleus

• nucleolus

• lysosome

• ribosome

Packages the proteins and sends them to the right place in the cell or to the cell membrane.

• nucleolus

• lysosome

• Golgi complex

• ribosome

Controls what goes in and out of the cell.

• cell wall

• cell membrane

• vacuole

• cytoskeleton

Found inside the nucleus. it builds ribosomes.

• cytoskeleton

• vacuole

• nucleolus

• cell membrane

The different parts of the cell. Means "small organs."

• organelle

• cytoskeleton

• cytoplasm

• mitochondria

surrounds the cell membrane. It gives the plant cell strength and protection.

• chloroplast

• cell wall

• plasma membrane

• cytoskeleton

The organelle where photosynthesis occurs.

• chloroplast

• nucleus

• vacuole

• lysosome
