Organelles Function

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
Nucleus   Contains genetic material; considered the control center of the cell.  
🗑
Lysosome   Involved in cleanup in the cell; digests and recycles materials in the cell. It is also involved in waste removal.  
🗑
Mitochondria   Converts chemical energy into energy that is useable by the cell.  
🗑
Golgi Apparatus, Golgi, or Golgi Body   Stores, modifies and packages proteins; gets proteins ready for specific functions and prepares them for transport.  
🗑
Chloroplasts   Converts carbon dioxide, water, and energy from sunlight to produce glucose (sugar) and oxygen. Found in plant cells and some algae.  
🗑
Endoplasmic Reticulum   Makes and transports lipids and proteins, removes toxins, and is a roadway for transportation in the cell. Ribosomes are found on some of this organelle.  
🗑
Cell Wall   Rigid outermost cell layer found in plants and certain algae, bacteria, and fungi. This cell part is not found in animal cells. It is involved in support and protection of the cell.  
🗑
Cell Membrane   Contains the organelles and cytoplasm of a cell; cell part is that it is not solid so it permits nutrients and water to pass into and waste to pass out of the cell.  
🗑
Ribosomes   An organelle that is the site where protein is built in the cell. DNA, genetic code, is used to build proteins at this organelle.  
🗑
Vacuole   Organelle involved in storage of nutrients, water, and cellular waste.  
🗑
Cytoplasm   Contains the organelles, organelles are suspended in this cell part. Allows transportation in the cell.  
🗑


   

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.
