Cell - Function

This organelle has one job, to make proteins.

• Ribosome

• Cell Membrane

• Vacuole

• Cell Wall

• Smooth ER

This is the fluid inside the cell. It's mostly water, but it also has nutrients (carbs, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids) floating around.

• Cytoplasm

• Cytoskeleton

• Vacuole

• Cell Wall

• Cell Membrane

This organelle is one of the cell's highways - but things other than ribosomes travel on it.

• Ribosome

• Golgi Apparatus

• Vesicle

• Smooth ER

• Rough ER

This organelle contains chlorophyll, which is a green pigment. It's job is to use energy from the sun to create food molecules (glucose)

• Chloroplast

• Mitochondria

• Vacuole

• Ribosome

• Cell Wall

This thick and rigid organelle is made of cellulose and provides plants cells with their shape and support.

• Chloroplast

• Cell Membrane

• Vacuole

• Cell Wall

• Capsule

This organelle's is made out of phospholipids and is considered semi-permeable, which means only some but not all things can pass through it.

• Ribosome

• Cell Membrane

• Vacuole

• Cell Wall

• Lysosome

This organelle is the main power producing site of the cell. It converts Glucose into ATP energy.

• Chloroplast

• Mitochondria

• Vacuole

• Ribosome

• Lysosome

This organelle is a factory in which proteins are mass produced. It's covered in ribosomes.

• Vesicle

• Rough ER

• Golgi Apparatus

• Smooth ER

• Golgi Apparatus

This organelle's job is to store water in the cell. In plants there is typically only one large organelle, but in animals there are many small organelles.

• Chloroplast

• Cytoplasm

• Vacuole

• Mitochondria

• Vesicle

This organelle receives proteins from the ER and cytoplasm and then tags them and ships them out of the cell.

• Vesicle

• Rough ER

• Golgi Apparatus

• Mitochondria

• Endoplasmic Reticulum
