rough er

helps make and transport proteins, ribosomes are attached to its surface, found in eukaryotic cells

smooth er

helps make and store lipids, found in eukaryotic cells

mitochondria

uses nutrients to produce ATP (energy) through cellular respiration

chloroplast

uses sunlight to make glucose (food) through photosynthesis, found in plant cells

nucleus

controls the activities of the cell and contains DNA, found in eukaryotic cells

nucleolus

makes ribosomes inside the nucleus, found in eukaryotic cells

lysosomes

uses enzymes to break down food, waste, and old cell parts, found in eukaryotic cells

vacuole

stores water, nutrients, and waste for the cell. found only in eukaryotic cells, larger in plant cells

cytoplasm

thick, gel-like liquid that fills the inside of a cell and is enclosed by the cell membrane
