Cell Parts Practice 2

The nucleus...

• stores wastes and other materials.

• controls what goes in and out of the cell.

• directs the cell's activities and contains the cell's genetic material.

• makes proteins.

The cell membrane...

• directs the cell's activities.

• controls what goes in and out of the cell and separates the cell from the outside environment.

• carries materials from one location to another in the cell.

• supports and anchors some structures in the cell.

The Golgi apparatus...

• is the "powerhouse" of the cell.

• produces proteins.

• separates the nucleus from the rest of the cell.

• modifies and sorts proteins and lipids before they're transported to final location in the cell.

The cytoplasm...

• contains cell materials and is the location of many reactions in the cell.

• stores substances.

• controls the movement of materials in and out of the cell.

• is the site of photosynthesis.

The endoplasmic reticulum (er)...

• is a series of tubes that transports proteins and may be smooth or rough.

• produces proteins.

• carries materials from one location in the cell to another.

• breaks down wastes and toxins.

Mitochondria...

• produce proteins.

• absorb light for photosynthesis.

• break down wastes and toxins.

• are the "powerhouse" of the cell as they supply the cell with energy.

Vesicles...

• carry materials from one location to another in a cell or to the cell membrane.

• produce proteins.

• support and anchor some structures.

• are the "powerhouse" of the cell.

Chloroplasts...

• control what go in and out of the cell.

• are the "powerhouse" of the cell.

• produce proteins.

• absorb light and are the site of photosynthesis in plant cells.
