Cell Organelles

2. The brain of the cell; controls activities of the cell.
4. A mass of proteins, RNA, and DNA.
5. Clear, thick, jelly-like material. Cushions the other organelles and hold them in place.
7. Found surrounding plant cells only.
9. Processes and packages lipids and proteins made by the cell. Known as the Post Office of the Cell.
10. Protects the nucleus.
12. In animal cells only. Used when the cells divide to make more cells.
13. Breaks down sugar molecules to release usable energy. known as the “The Powerhouse of the Cell”
15. Makes proteins.
16. Usually found on the walls of the rough er, which is why it appears rough. can also be found floating free in the cytoplasm. Produce protein.

1. Surrounds all cells.Provides protection, structural support, and controls the movement of materials in and out of the cell.
3. Transport lipids (fats) throughout the cell. Usually near the nucleus.
4. In plant cells only Uses energy from the sun to make food for the plant and for us if we eat those plants Photosynthesis) Has chlorophyll which contains green pigments.
6. Plant cells have a large, central one. Animal cells have many smallones. Fluid-filled sacs that store food, water, and gaseous waste.
8. In animal cells only. Have enzymes that digest old cell parts or particles into smaller ones.
11. Allow things in and out of the nucleus.
14. Transport ribosomes and proteins throughout the cell. Has ribosomes stuck to its surface and appears bumpy
