| 3. The layer around the outside of a cell that controls what gets in and out | cell membrane |
| 4. The gel like substance that fills a cell, it protects the cell structures | cytoplasm |
| 5. The control center of the cell | nucleus |
| 6. Structures within a cell that break down food and turn it into energy | mitochondria |
