-
Nucleus
Controls the cell.
-
Nucleolus
Makes ribosomes, maybe more than one in a cell, found in the nucleus.
-
Chromosomes
Determines what traits a living thing will have, passes information from parent to offspring
-
Cell Membrane
Gives the cell shape, holds the cytoplasm, and controls what moves into and out of the cell
-
Cytoplasm
most of the cell's chemical reactions take place there
-
Vacuoles
Liquid-filled, may store food, water, minerals, or wastes. In plants it takes up a lot of space. There maybe more than one.
-
Mitochondria
&
Golgi apparatus
- Produce energy when food is broken down, often called the "powerhouse of the cell".
- &
- flat stacks, packages and transfers infomation from cell.
-
Ribosomes
Where proteins are made, and often connected to the endoplasmic reticulum
-
Endoplasmic Reticulum
The "transportation system" in the cell,connects the nuclear membrane with the cell
-
Centrioles
Found only in animal cells, is used in cell reproduction to help the chromosomes arrange before cell division.
-
Cell Wall
Found only in plant cells. Forms a thick outer covering outside the cell membrane, gives the plant support and shape.
-
Chloroplasts
Found only in plant cells. Found in the cytoplasm of green plant cells, contain chlorophyll, traps the energy from light, and is where photosynthesis takes place.
-
Lysosomes
digests food particles with enzymes, pinched of pieces of golgi apparatus
