Thin, flexible layer of cell that acts as a boundary, barrier, or filter.

• Cell wall
• Cytoplasm
• Nucleus
• Cell membrane

Fluid inside the cell that contains salts and other molecules

• Nucleus
• Mitochondria
• Cell membrane
• Cytoplasm

Stiff structure outside cell membrane to protect from attacks in plant cell.

 

• Cell membrane
• Cytoplasm
• Nucleus
• Cell wall

Spherical structures found in all living cells, responsible for protein synthesis- Protein factories

• Mitochondria
• Nucleus
• Golgi apparatus
• Ribosomes

Large, interconnected tubes in eukaryotic cells which transport proteins and lipids.

• Mitochondria
• Golgi apparatus
• Lysosome
• Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)

Sac-like structure that store food, water and waste material

• Lysosome
• Mitochondrion
• Ribosome
• Vacuole

Cell's "post office," modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids for transport to other organelles.

• Endoplasmic reticulum
• Mitochondria
• Lysosome
• Golgi apparatus

Powerhouse of the cell. Powers the cell through chemical reaction.

Use light energy and make food

• Digestion
• Fermentation
• Respiration
