| Cell Membrane | - Gives the cell shape, holds the cytoplasm, and controls what moves into and out of the cell. |

| Vacuoles | - Liquid-filled, may store food, water, minerals, or wastes. |
| Mitochondria | Produce energy when food is broken down, often called the "powerhouse of the cell". |
| Ribosomes | - Where proteins are made, and often connected to the endoplasmic reticulum. |
| Endoplasmic Reticulum | The "transportation system" in the cell, connects the nuclear membrane with the cell membrane. Used in detoxification of the cell. "ER" |
| Cell Wall | Found only in plant cells. Forms a thick outer covering outside the cell membrane, gives the plant support and shape. |
