What is an Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)?

a)

The transportation system of the cell. It moves materials around the cell

c)

A jellylike fluid inside the cell in which the organelles are suspended

d)

Uses chemicals to break down food and worn out cell parts

2.

What is a Nucleus?

a)

Control center of the cell that contains DNA

b)

A collection of tissues that carry out a specialized function of the body

c)

The transportation system of the cell. It moves materials around the cell

d)

Makes proteins

3.

What is a Golgi body?

a)

A structure in a cell that receives proteins and other newly formed materials from the endoplasmic reticulum, packages them, and distributes them to other parts of the cell.

b)

Makes proteins
