chromatinlong strand of proteins and DNA (hereditary material)
cytoplasmgel-like material inside the cell and outside the nucleus
endoplasmic reticulum (ER)folded membrane extending from the nucleus to the cell membrane that moves materials around in the cell
ribosomessmall structures that recieve directions from the hereditary material in the nucleus on how to make specific proteins
Golgi bodiesmembrane-covered sacs that package and move proteins to the outside of the cell
mitochondriawhere food molecules are broken down and energy is released
Lysosomescontain chemicals that digest waste and worn-out cell parts
vacuolesfluid filled temoprary storage areas
cell wallrigid structure outside the cell membrane that supports and protects plant cells
