|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Cell membrane | acts as a barrier between the cell and its environment; is on the outside of animal cells and just inside the cell wall on plant and prokaryotic cells
🗑
|
||||
| 2. Cell wall | provides strength and support to the cell membrane and is found on the outside of plant cells and prokaryotic cells
🗑
|
||||
| 3. Centriole | part of the cell’s cytoskeleton in animal cells
🗑
|
||||
| 4. Chloroplasts | make food using the energy of sunlight and contain chlorophyll; where photosynthesis occurs
🗑
|
||||
| 5. Cytoplasm | cellular fluid surrounding a cell’s organelles
🗑
|
||||
| 6. Cytoskeleton | maintains the cell’s shape
🗑
|
||||
| 7. DNA | the hereditary material that controls all the activities in the cell; contains the information to make new cells; and provides the instructions for making proteins
🗑
|
||||
| 8. Endoplasmic reticulum or ER | cell’s delivery system; the ER packages up proteins for release from the cell; rough endoplasmic reticulum has ribosomes on it, while smooth does not
🗑
|
||||
| 9. Golgi complex | cell’s packaging center; modifies and/or packages materials and transports them out of the cell
🗑
|
||||
| 10. Lysosomes | packages of destruction; digest food particles, wastes, and foreign invaders
🗑
|
||||
| 11. Mitochondria | cell’s power plant; make ATP; where cellular respiration occurs
🗑
|
||||
| 12. Nuclear membrane | surrounds the nucleus
🗑
|
||||
| 13. Nucleolus | dark spot inside the nucleus; where ribosomes are made
🗑
|
||||
| 14. Nucleus | control center of the cell; DNA is found in the nucleus; the nucleolus is inside the nucleus
🗑
|
||||
| 15. Ribosomes | cell’s protein factories; amino acids are hooked together to make proteins
🗑
|
||||
| 16. Vacuoles | stores water and other materials; they are large in plant cells and smaller in animal cells
🗑
|
||||
| 17. Vesicles | membrane-covered compartments that pinch off from the ER, Golgi complex, or cell membrane
🗑

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.
