| centrioles | 199 - located near the nucleus and help organize cell division in animal cells |
| ribosomes | 200 - assembly lines of the cell; produce proteins |
| endoplasmic reticulum | 200 - assembly line of the cell; produce lipids AND proteins |
| golgi apparatus | 201 - packaging system of the cell; modify, sort, and package materials produced by the ER |
| chloroplasts | 202 - solar panels of the cell; capture the energy from sunlight and convert it to chemical energy during photosynthesis |
| mitochondria | 202 - power plants of the cell; convert chemical energy in food into compounds that are more convenient for the cell to use |
| lipid bilayer | 204 - gives the cell membrane flexibility and forms a strong barrier between the cell and its surroundings |
| selectively permeable | 205 - some substances can pass across and others cannot. |
