Cell Organelles
This organelle is known as the "powerhouse" of the cell.
Mitochondria
This structure provides structural support and protection in plant cells.
Cell wall
This type of cell has a cell wall, a large central vacuole, and chloroplasts.
Plant cell
The nucleus acts as the ____________ for the cell.
This organelle contains the cell's genetic material
Nucleus
This organelle carries the DNA which contains the genetic material that carries information about the organism.
Chromosome
These cells lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
Bacteria cells
Copies the message of the DNA
This structure is responsible for protein synthesis.
Ribosomes
These structures aid in cell division in animal cells
Centrioles
Both plant and animal cells have this outer layer
Cell membrane
Creates ribosomes, found inside the nucleus.
Nucleolus
This organelle modifies, sorts, and packages proteins for secretion.
Golgi Appratus
This organelle helps detoxify harmful substances in the liver.
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
The vacuoles are much smaller in this type of cell.
Animal cell
Within the chromosome is the ___________ responsible for providing the cell with its unique characteristics.
DNA
Small, round organelle involved with digestion.
Lysosome
This organelle helps maintain the shape and organization of the cell.
Cytoskeleton
This type of cell contains plasmids and a nucleoid region.
Bacteria cells
What is the fluid inside the nucleus that contains ions, dissolved nucleotides and other chemicals essential to cell growth?
Nucleoplasm
