(PLANTS) Cell wall – Protector   Make the cell strong  Protect the cell  

Cell membranes – Gate of the cell   Holds and protects the cell  Controls materials moving in and out of the

cell  

Cytoplasm – Movement   Lets cell parts move

Mitochondria – Power    Makes energy for the cell  Makes power for the cell

 

(PLANTS) Chloroplasts – Food producers    

Takes energy from sunlight  Produces food for the cell  

 

Vacuoles – Storage tanks   Stores food, water and chemicals
