| Ribosomes are organelles that | float in the cytoplasm and attach to the endoplasmic reticulum. |
| Organelle that has a double membrane structure is the | mitochondrion |
| A major function of the cell membrane is to | control what enters and leaves the cell. |
| This organelle is primarily a sac of powerful digestive enzymes called acid hydrolases. | lysosome |
| A spherical membrane-bound structure that contains the genetic material of the cell and is often referred to as the “command center” of the cell is the | nucleus |
