Structurs inside cytoplasm that have their own specific job or function | Organelle |
Watery fluid inside the cell that organelles are suspended in | Cytoplasm |
Place where proteins are built; free floating or attached to ER | Ribosomes |
Control center for the cell; contains genetic information (DNA) | Nucleus |
A cell that has a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles | Eukaryotic |
Provides shape, protection and support for plan cells; made of cullulose | Cell Wall |
Breaks down sugar to make energy (ATP); power house of the cell | Mitochondria |
Responsible for digestion in the cell; destroys worn-out organelles, gets rid of wastes and protects cell from harmful particles | Lysosome |
