1. Organelles: the general name of tiny cell structures that carry out specific functions within the cell.

2. Cell Wall: A rigid layer that surrounds the cells of plants and some other organisms, it protects and supports the cell.

3. Cell Membrane: controls which substances pass into and out of a cell.

4. Nuclear Membrane: the double membrane surrounding the nucleus within a cell. Also called the nuclear envelope. **Not in the textbook

5. Nucleolus: small round structure in the nucleus where ribosomes are made.

6. Chromatin: thin strands of material that fill the nucleus, contains information for directing the cells function.

7. Nucleus: Control center of the cell, directs all of the cells activities.

8. Ribosomes: small grain-shaped organelles that produce proteins.

9. Cytoplasm: jelly-like substance that fills all the open areas in the cell.

10. 10. Mitochondria:

10. Mitochondria: Rod-shaped structures that convert energy from food into energy for the cell, nicknamed the “powerhouse”

endoplasimic reticulum

11. Endoplasmic Reticulum: The ER forms a maze of passageways in which proteins and other materials are carried from one part of the cell to another.

12. Golgi apparatus: receives proteins and other newly formed materials from the ER, packages them, and distributes them to other parts of the cell or outside the cell wall.

13. Vacuole: stores water, food, and other materials needed by the cell, they can also carry waste products until it is removed

14. Chloroplasts: captures energy from the sunlight and changes it to a form of energy cells can use in making food.

15. Lysosomes: Contains substances that break down large food particles into smaller ones.
