| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Ribosomes | makes proteins |
| Golgi Bodies | Cellulose (sugar used to make the cell wall) is made here |
| Cell Wall | Supports and protects the cell, found only in plant cells. |
| Endoplasmic Reticulum | Moves material(food, energy and waste)around in the cell. It's a delivery system. |
| Chloroplasts | Green organelle that makes food using photosysthesis. Found only in plant cells. |
| Cell Membrane | Controls what goes in and out of the cell and it holds all the parts of the cell together. |
| Cytoplasm | Gel-like fluid, fills much of the inside of the cell and holds the organelles in place. |
| Nucleus | It gives directions on what the cell should do. It's the cells brain or command center. |
| Mitochondria | Breaks down food molecules so the cell can live. It's called the powerhouse of the cell. |
| Vacuoles | Acts like a storage unit. It stores water, waste and food. |
| Nucleolus | Found inside the nucleus, responsible for making ribosomes |
| Nuclear Membrane | Surrounds and protects the nucleus. |
