Organelles and Functions
Nucleus- Controls cell activities
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)- Transports material through the cell
Cell Membrane- Controls what enters and leaves the cell
Golgi body- Processes and packages material
Ribosomes- Makes proteins
Mitochondria- Produces energy for the cell
Lysosome- Contains enzymes that digest waste, food, etc
Cytoplasm- Gel-like that fills the empty space of the cell
Vacuole- Stores food, water, and waste.
Centrioles- Helps with cell division in animal cells
Chloroplast- Traps sunlight to make food for the plant
Cell wall- Supports and protects the plant cell
Flagella- Whip-like projection used for movement
Chromatin- Genetic material (DNA or RNA)
Cilia- Hair-like projections used for movement
Peroxisome- Plays a role in metabolism
Centrosome- Main microtubule-organizing centers for animal cells
