Organelle
CELL WALL
CELL
MEMBRANE
Description
Rigid, tough, made of
cellulose
Thin, covering, protects
cells
CYTOPLASM
Jelly like substance that
contains organelles
NUCLEUS
Dense, ball shaped
structure, contains DNA
Thin covering over the
nucleus
Small dark area in the
nucleus
In the nucleus, made of
DNA and protein, contains
genes
Clear, tubular system of
tunnels throughout the
cell
Small specks made of RNA.
Found in cytoplasm or on
the endoplasmic reticulum
Location in the cytoplasm,
bean shaped
NUCLEAR
MEMBRANE
NUCLELOUS
CHROMATIN
ENDOPLASMIC
RETICULUM
RIBOSOME
MITOCHONDRIA
VACUOLE
Large open storage area,
smaller in animal cells
CHLOROPLAST
Green structures that
contain chlorophyll
GOLGI BODY
Small bags with tubes
connecting them
LYOSOME
Small, round structures,
containing enzymes
Small cylindrical
CENTRIOLE
Function
Protects and supports
the cell
Protects the cell,
performs active
transport and passive
transport, moves
materials in and out of
the cell,
communication
Pads and supports
organelles inside the
cell. Moves by cyclosis
Controls all of the cell’s
activities
Covers and protects
the nucleus
Produces ribosome’s
Animal, Plant or Both
Plant

Provides instructions
Both
for the cells activities,
(growth, reproduction)
Transports materials
Both
like proteins around
the cell
Makes proteins
Both
Supplies energy or ATP
for the cell through cell
respiration using
glucose and oxygen
Storage tank for food,
water, wastes or
enzymes
Captures sunlight and
uses it to produce food
through
photosynthesis
Packages and secrets
proteins for use in and
out of the cell
Digests older cell parts,
food or other objects
Used with the spindle
apparatus during
mitosis

3. USE THE INFORMATION ON THE TABLE TO COMPLETE THE CELL CHART:
Complete the following table by writing the name of the cell part or organelle in the right hand column that
matches the structure/function in the left hand column. A cell part may be used more than once.
Structure/Function
Cell Part
Stores material within the cell
Closely stacked, flattened sacs (plants only)
The sites of protein synthesis
Transports materials within the cell
The region inside the cell except for the nucleus
Organelle that manages or controls all the cell functions in a eukaryotic cell
Contains chlorophyll, a green pigment that traps energy from sunlight and
gives plants their green color
Digests excess or worn-out cell parts, food particles and invading viruses or
bacteria
Small bumps located on portions of the endoplasmic reticulum
Provides temporary storage of food, enzymes and waste products
Firm, protective structure that gives the cell its shape in plants, fungi, most
bacteria and some protests
Produces a usable form of energy for the cell
Packages proteins for transport out of the cell
Everything inside the cell including the nucleus
Site where ribosomes are made
The membrane surrounding the cell
Provides support for the cell, has two “subparts”
Name for the collection of DNA in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells
Consist of hollow tubes which provide support for the cell
Small hair-like structures used for movement or sensing things
Composed of a phospholipid bilayer
Longer whip-like structures used for movement
