Cell Organelles

Students can test their knowledge of the functions of various cell organelles in a eukaryotic cell.

AB
nucleusthe control center of the cell
nucleolusstructure within the nucleus; may be involved in protein synthesis
chromosomesgenetic material found in the nucleus
mitochondriawhere energy in the form of ATP is produced
ribosomeswhere proteins are made, rRNA
endoplasmic reticulumtransport system in the cell, located just outside the nucleus
golgi apparatusreceive, process and packages up protein
lysosomebreaks down large molecules and cell parts
chloroplastwhere photosynthesis occurs
cell membranemade of phospholipids, this semi-permeable organelle controls what moves in and out of the cell.
cell wallmade of cellulose, protects and supports plant cells
eukaryotecell that has a membrane-bound nucleus
prokaryotea cell with no nuclear membrane and few (if any) membrane bound organelles
vacuolestores water and food
RERhelps ribosomes make protein
SERmakes lipids
cytoplasmthe jelly-like fluid that fills a cell which is made up of mostly water and salt. Contains all organelles and cell parts.
type of cell that contains cell wall, chloroplast & large central vacuoleplant cell
type of cell that contains centrioles & lysosomeanimal cell
ribosome, RER and golgi apparatus are directly involved in the synthesis of this macromolecule.protein synthesis
