When newly formed proteins leave the rough endoplasmic reticulum, they are transported to this organelle, where the proteins are sorted and packaged

The part of the cell that controls what enters and leaves the cell

This serves as the "powerhouse" of the cell

This is the site of photosynthesis in a plant cell

These may be found free-floating in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum

This organelle contains pigments of all colors except green

Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum

The type of endoplasmic reticulum to which no ribosomes are attached

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

. The type of endoplasmic reticulum to which ribosomes are attached

This is the site of protein synthesis in a cell

This porous structure surrounds the nucleus, keeping it intact

This part of the cell manufactures the ribosomal subunits

The part of the cell contains strong digestive enzymes to break down proteins, carbohydrates and lipids into small molecules that can be sued by the rest of the cell.

Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum

The place where lipids are manufactured

This organelle consists of two types of fibers called microfilaments and microtubules

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

Newly made proteins are inserted into spaces of this organelle where they are modified and shaped into functioning proteins

This organelle puts the "finishing touches" on proteins before they are shipped off to their final destinations

This large structure in a plant cell is filled with water creating turgor pressure

This organelle has the unique ability to absorb the energy from the sun and convert it into a molecule of glucose

This organelle serves as a storage area for starch in a plant cell

This organelle is composed of tough, stringy cellulose fibers

This organelle helps to "clean up" or destroy any debris that might build up inside the cell

This is the site of cellular respiration

This is an internal framework and support system to give shape and organization to a cell

This organelle gives fruits and flowers their color
