| Organells (Alex) | organelles are the nuclei which store genetic information |
| Cytosol (Alex) | Cytosol is the liquid found inside of cells. |
| Cyptoplasm (Alex) | Cytoplasm is the gelatinous liquid that fills the inside of a cell. |
| Cell Membrane (Alex) | Cell Membrane is a double layer of fat and proteins that surrounds a cell and protects it. |
| Chromatin (DNA) (Alex) | Chromatin is a substance within a chromosome consisting of DNA and protein. |
| Nucleus (Alex) | Nucleus is a membrane-bound organelle that contains genetic material |
