Cell Organelles

Cytoplasm

Gel-like material that surrounds all organelles.

Nucleus

Controls all the activities of the cells.

Vacuole

Storage for food, waste, and water.

Cell membrane

Barrier that surrounds the cell.

Ribosomes

Small organelles that make protein

Mitochondria

Site of cellular respiration. Makes energy from food.

Chloroplast

Site of photosynthesis. Makes food from sunlight.

Cell wall

Surrounds the plant cell, made of cellulose Golgi bodies.

Golgi bodies

Will modify, sort, and package materials for delivery.

Endoplasmic Reticulum

Transports molecules from the nucleus to the outer part inside the cell. Rough= has ribosomes. Smooth=has no ribosomes

Nucleus membrane

Surrounds and protects the nucleus.

Lysosome

Recycling center of the cell: recycles worn out cell parts.

Nucleolus

Inside the nucleus, where ribosomes can be produced.

Chromosomes

Contains genetic material.
