Question
Answer
Middle Lamella   Intercellular Cement: Holds plant cells together - Royal Blue  
Primary Cell Wall   Gives shape and protects cell - Light Green  
Intercellular Space   Open Space on cell wall  
Secondary Cell Wall   Gives shape and protects cell - Red  
Tertiary Cell Wall   Gives shape and protects cell - Medium Green  
Chloroplast   Organelles: Manufacture of food - Forrest Green  
Golgi Bodies   Packaging plants for secretion. Golgi Vesicles filled with materials for secretion break away and move materials out - Pink  
Plasmodesmata   Holes inside cell walls: Intercellular connections  
Central Vacuole   Regulates diffusion of materials in and out of cell: storage area - Clear with gray lining  
Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER).   (Ribosomes): transport of materials and aid in protein synthesis - turquoise with white dots  
Cell Sap   Inside the vacuole: regulates diffusion - clear  
Internuclear Membrane   Regulates movement of material in and out of nucleus - white  
Nucleolus   Translucent ball in center of nucleus: production of RNA and Ribosomes - Orange  
Outer Nuclear Membrane   Regulates movement of materials in and out of nucleus - turquoise  
Nucleus   Control Center of the cell: contains genetic material (chromatin, chromosomes, and DNA)  
Chromosome   Coiled wires in center of nucleus: contains genes and DNA - blue & white  
Annulus   Holes in nuclear membranes: transports materials in and out of nucleus  
Ribosome   Small white dots on RER: protein synthesis  
Cell Wall   Opaque gray: Non-living: Found only in plant cells: Gives shape and protects cells  
Mitochondria   Orange with brown, squiggly centers: Powerhouse of the cell: manufacture of ATP (Energy currency of the cell) and aerobic cellular respiration  
Cytoplasm   Translucent material inside cell membrane: Support and nurish organelles  
Granum   Stack of green coins inside the chloroplasts: manufacture of food  
Stroma   White material around granum: surrounds, supports, and nurishes granum.  
Chloroplast Wall   Defines and Protects chloroplasts - Forrest Green  
Vacuolar Membrane   Regulates movement of materials in and out of the vacuoles - gray  
Plasma Membrane   Cell membrane: yellow: Regulates flow of materials in and out of the cell  
Polysomes   Concentrated areas of Ribosomes: Not fond of the ER. (not on diagram - white)
