| Ribosomes | site of protein synthesis |
| Golgi apparatus | folded membranes that store and transports enzymes and hormones, also produces cell wall in plants. |
| Cytoplasm | jelly-like material surrounding the nucleus of the cell. |
| Nucleus | Control center of the cell. |
| Nucleolus | Site of ribosome synthesis |
| Nuclear membrane | Surrounds the nucleus. |
| Cell membrane | membrane surrounding the organelles and the cytoplasm of the cell. Controls what enters and leaves the cell. |
| Mitochondria | The site of cellular respiration or energy production. Membrane bound. Powerhouse of the cell. |
| Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum | Forms a link between the nuclear membrane and the cell. Ribosomes are attached to the surface. Proteins are synthesized in the ribosomes and enclosed in the vessicles and sent to the Golgi. |
| Vacuole | Site of storage of glucose, water salts, and toxic substances. |
| Cell wall | Plant, fungal, and bacteria have a cell wall that is used for support and protection. It is composed of cellulose. |
| Chloroplast | Site of photosynthesis in the plant and algal cell. |
| Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum | It forms a link between the nuclear membrane and the cell. Site of many metabolic reactions and synthesis of phospholipids and fatty acids. |
| Lysosome | Contain enzymes needed for digesting food, viruses, bacteria and old cells. |
| Centrioles | Not normally found in plant cells. They are found in animal cells in pairs and are necessary for cell division. |
| Cytoskeleton | Network of microtubules and microfilaments used for support and movement of the cell. |
| Chromatin | Hereditary material in the cell. |
| Microtubule | Serve as structural components within cells and are involved in many cellular processes including mitosis and cytokinesis. |
| Microfilament | These form the cytoskeleton, a three-dimensional network inside an eukaryotic cell. |
| Microbody | Membrane bound cytoplasmic particles that are specialized as containers for metabolic activity (ex. lysosome) |
| Plasmodesma | Small pores in the cell wall which appear toallow a bridge of cytoplasm from one cell to the next. |
| Chromoplast | Plastids that produce and store pigments for color. |
| Plastid | Responsible for photosynthesis, storage of products like starch and for the synthesis of many classes of molecules such as fatty acids. |
