| cell membrane | a thin outer layer that controls what goes in and out of the cell |
| cell wall | a stiff outer layer (plants) that gives the cell shape and support |
| chloroplast | the part of a plant cell that makes food using sunlight |
| cytoskeleton | tiny fibers that give the cell shape and help it move |
| smooth er | makes fats and helps remove harmful substances |
| rough er | has ribsomes on it; helps move and make proteins |
| golgi | packs, sorts, and sends out proteins and other materials |
| lysosome | breaks down waste and old cell parts (like the cells cleanup crew) |
| nucleus | the control center of the cell; holds the dna |
| ribosome | makes proteins for the cell |
| free ribosomes | float in the cytoplasm and makes proteins used in the cell |
| ribosomes in rough er | make proteins that are sent out of the cell or to other parts of it. |
| cytoplasm | the jelly like fluid that fills the cell and holds all the organelles |
| cilia | small hairlike structures that move things or help the cell move |
| vacuole | stores water, food, or waste; plant cells usually have a big one |
| centrioles | help the cell divide (found mostly in animal cells) |
| nucleolus | found inside the nucleus; make ribsomoes |
