Cell Parts and Functions

AB
cytoplasmfills up the space of the cell outside the nucleus inside the membrane. mostly H20 BOTH
vacuolestorage areas in the cell. contains water & disolved minerals
nucleolusstorage area for chemicals need to make RNA and new proteins in the ribosones BOTH
chromosomedirects the activites of the cell and passes on the traits of the cell to new cells BOTH
nucleusa control center of the cell. contains proteins and salts. BOTH
nuclear membraneseparated the nucleus from the rest of the cell-passageway into and out of the cell. semipermiable BOTH
lysosomecontain enzymes that break down large food molecules into smalled ones. ANIMAL (rare in plant)
endoplasmic reticulumlike a "highway" system throughout the cell. transports proteins and other materials throughout the cell. BOTH
ribosomesa place where proteins are made BOTH
cell wallehlps give protection and support to the cell PLANT
chloroplastscaptures energy in sunlight and uses it to produce food PLANT
mitochondria(ion)they are powerhouses where cellular respiration takes place. ENERGY is produced and stored in special energy-rich molecules BOTH
cell membraneallows cells to change shape under pressure. keeps the protoplasm separated from the outside. helps maintain homeostasis.controls the movement of materials into and out of the cell
