Where the final touches are made to proteins, and they are packed up into vesicles
Golgi Apparatus
Little balls that carry proteins and other materials around a cell
Vesicles
Soft membrane used to transport wastes and toxic materials out of the cell
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
A soft, semi-permeable skin around the cytoplasm of all cells.
Cell membrane
Special vesicles that break down and recycle old cell parts
Lysosomes
Where all the genetic material (DNA) is kept, wrapped up in a membrane. Provides instructions for making proteins.
Nucleus
The powerhouse of the cell - produces energy!
Mitochondria
The jelly-like liquid that fills up a cell, containing all the organelles
Cytoplasm
The workers of the cell, used to make chemical reactions happen and move things around. Made by ribosomes.
Proteins
A hard barrier found around plant, fungi and bacteria cells, providing structure and support
Cell wall
A small storage sack for waste and water, there may be many in one cell. Name organelle plus cell type.
Vacuole (animal cell)
This is like a factory for making proteins.
Ribosome
Small organelle found inside the nucleus, where ribosomes are made.
Nucleolus
Where photosynthesis happens
Chloroplast
A large storage sack for waste and water, that might take up half of the cell. Provides structure when filled with water. Name organelle plus cell type.
Vacuole (plant cell)
The soft membrane near the nucleus, with ribosomes dotted over it. Where proteins are made.
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
