Ch. 7-2: Cell organelles

After reading pages 196-207, match the following internal parts of the cell to the function.

AB
Nucleus (pg. 197)contains all the cell's DNA
Cytoplasm (pg. 196)fluid portion of the cell outside the nucleus
Nucleolus (pg. 197)small, dense region inside the nucleus where ribosomes are assembled
Vacuole (pg. 198)place where materials like water, salt, proteins, and carbs are stored
Lysosome (pg. 198)organelle that breaks down food and old organelles
cytoskeleton (pg. 199)network of protein filaments that help the cell maintain its shape; also involved in movement of organelles
Ribosomes (pg. 200)place where proteins are assembled
Endoplasmic reticulum (pg. 200)modifies proteins and moves them throughout cell
Golgi apparatus (pg. 201)post office of the cell; where proteins are sorted and packaged
Chloroplasts (pg. 202)found only in plant cells; place where sunlight is made into food
Mitochondria (pg. 202)where energy from food is converted to a usable form for the cell
Cell Wall (pg. 203)both prokaryotes and plants have this; support, shape, and protect the cell
Cell membrane (pg. 204)forms a barrier between the cell and its surroundings
