🗑
Nuclear pore   A gateway to allow materials to move between the cytoplasm and the nucleus  
🗑

Golgi   Series of membrane sacks where proteins are modified and sorted to their correct destinations  
🗑
Mitochondria   Double membrane structures that produce the ATP used by the cell as an energy source  
🗑
Microvilli   Highly folded region of the cell surface membrane to allow easier faster movement of materials into and out of the cell  
🗑
Centrioles   Organise the microtubules within the cell and involved in cell division  
🗑
Microtubules   Protein scaffold within the cell involved in directing and organising materials within the cytoplasm  
🗑
Ribosomes   produce proteins within the cell. Maybe free within the cytoplasm or located on the rough ER

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
