| Cell Wall | This structure is only found in plant cells. It gives the plant cells support and allows plants to grow tall |
| Cell Membrane | This structure is found in both plant and animal cells. It allows materials to pass in and out of the cell |
| Nucleus | This structure controls all of the activities going on within the cell. It is the "brain of the cell". Contains DNA |
| Nuclear Membrane | This structure protects the nucleus |

| Endoplasmic Reticulum | This structure carries proteins from one part to another |
| Ribosome | This structure is sometimes attached to the ER, where proteins are made |
| Mitochondria | This is the powerhouse of the cell. It supplies the cell with all of the energy it needs |
| Vacuole | This structure stores food and water for the cell. It is found in both plant and animal cells, but is much larger in plant cells |
| Lysosome | This structure is mainly only found in animal cells. It cleans up the cell by digesting old cell parts or digesting entire cells that are injured |
| Chloroplasts | These structures are only found in plants. They contain chlorophyll |
| Organelles | This is the term given to all of the structure within a cell |
| Mutlicellular | organism containing more than one cell |
