Cell Structures
Match the cell organelle with the function
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Is the "brain" of the cell. Controls all functions of the cell. | Nucleus |
| Makes proteins. | Ribosomes |
| Controls movement of materials in and out of the cell. | Cell Membrane |
| Carries information that determines trait and function of the cell. | Chromosomes/Chromatin |
| Structure where ribosomes are produced. | Nucleolus |
| Aids in cell reproduction - found only in animal cells. | Centriole |
| "Power house" of the cell. Site where cellular respiration occurs. Produce energy from digested food. | Mitochondria |
| Green chemical found in plant cells that is needed for photosynthesis. | Chloroplast |
| Contains digestive enzymes that breakdown large molecules - digest worn out organelles "Pac-Man" or “stomach” of the cell | Lysosomes |
| Jelly like material - where most of the chemical reactions occur in the cell. | Cytoplasm |
| Network of protein filaments that play an essential role in cell movement, shape, and division. | Cytoskeleton |
| Transports materials through cell and produces proteins. Ribosomes present. | Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) |
| Transports materials through cell and produces proteins. No ribosomes present. | Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) |
| Package and export materials in the cell - "UPS" of the cell. | Golgi Apparatus, Golgi Body or Golgi Complex |
| Bubbles or vesicles for storage of food, water, chemicals or waste. | Vacuoles |
| Protects and supports the plant made of cellulose. Not found in animal cells. | Cell Wall |
| Green structure found inside plant cell that contains chlorophyll. Site where photosynthesis occurs. | Chloroplast |
| Allows certain materials to pass into and out of the nucleus. | Nuclear Membrane |
