Vacuole Cell Membrane Cytoplasm Lysosome Ribosome Mitochondria Chloroplast Nucleus Thin, flexible barrier around a cell that regulates what enters and leaves a cell Storage unit that may contain water, nutrients, or waste Jelly-like material (mostly water) found inside the cell membrane Break down unwanted material in the cell for digestion and recycling. Small particles of RNA and protein where protein synthesis/ assembly takes place Uses energy from food to make ATP through cellular respiration Captures sunlight energy and converts it to chemical energy through photosynthesis Contains the cell’s DNA and controls most cell processes
