BLUFF
What is the organelle responsible for energy production in the cell, often referred to as the "powerhouse"?
Mitochondria
What is the fluid-filled space inside the cell that holds the organelles and provides a medium for chemical reactions?
Cytoplasm
Which organelle is responsible for photosynthesis in plant cells?
Chloroplast
Which structure is involved in protein synthesis and is found either floating in the cytoplasm or attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum?
Ribosomes
What is the membrane-bound organelle that stores nutrients, waste products, and helps maintain turgor pressure in plant cells?
Vacuole
Identify the organelle that modifies, sorts, and packages proteins for secretion or for use within the cell.
Golgi apparatus (Golgi body)
