- 1. Cell ________ allows useful substances (such as water, oxygen and glucose) to enter the cell and allows waste materials (such as carbon dioxide) to leave the cell.
- 2. These organelles provide the cell with energy.
- 3. This organelle stores food, water, minerals and waste materials.
- 4. Cell ________ is made from cellulose and is found in plant cells only. It makes the plant cell rigid (firm), protects and strengthens it and gives a rectangular-shape.
- 5. This is a gel-like substance in which all the others organelles (structures) are found.
