________- membranous "bags "that contain digestive enzymes to lysis (split) or break down food, old cell parts, or bacteria.

Microtubules

________- strands and small tubes that facilitate movement through cytoplasm or at the base of cilia and flagella.

Golgi body

________ (apparatus)- stack of membrane bound sacs that make vacuoles.

SER

________- membrane bound tube- like structure that metabolizes lipids and transports them through the cell.

Mitochondrion

________- bean- shaped, double membranous organelle that performs cellular respiration to break down sugar to release carbon dioxide, water, and ATP energy.

Peroxisomes

________ membranous sacs containing oxidase enzymes to detoxify poisonous substances and reduce free radicals in the cells.

Centrioles

________- Star- shaped pair of organelles found near the nucleus.

Cilia / Flagella

short, many extensions on the surface of the plasma membrane that move the cell or move things past the cell

Nucleus

control center that stores the genetic information (DNA)

Plasma Membrane

Small particles like water and dissolved substances can pass through the fats

RER

Membrane bound tube-like structure that has ribosomes studded on its surface

Vacuole

it stores waste, water, and secretion
