Cell Parts and Functions

Identify by Picture

Cell Membrane

• Regulates what enters and leaves the cell.

Nucleolus

• Structure in the nucleus which makes ribosomes for protein synthesis

Nucleus

• Controls activities of the cell and contains genetic material

Mitochondria

• Provides cell with energy by using sugar (glucose) as a fuel source.

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

• A system of channels that transport proteins through the cell

Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum

• A system of channels that manufacture carbohydrates and lipids and transports them through the cell

Golgi Body (Apparatus)

• Collects, modifies, and packages chemicals made at one location in a cell and secretes finished products to be used at another location in the cell

• Dots?

Ribosomes

• Manufacture proteins in the cell

• Yellow area?

Cytoplasm

• Gel-like fluid inside the cell that all organelles are suspended in

# 5? # 6?

Vacuoles

• Store materials such as water, salts, carbohydrates, and waste materials. They may occupy a large space within plant cells.

Green area?

Cell Wall

• Supports, strengthens, and protects the cell. Not found in animal cells.

Chloroplasts

• Photosynthetic organelles found in plant cells

Lysosome

• Contains chemicals and enzymes needed for digesting certain materials in the cell.
