100

This is in the center of every cell

Nucleus

100

With early microscopes, the only cell organelle seen was this.

Nucleus

100

This is the outer covering of a cell

Cell wall

100

This is membrane-bound organelles in plant cells

Plastids

200

Flagella forms a small hair-like structure called this.

Cilia

200

Cytoplasts of eukaryotic cells contain many small structures known as this.

Organelles

200

This is where proteins are formed

Ribosomes

200

This is endoplasmic reticulum without ribosomes attached

Smooth ER

Centrioles form long whip-like tails found in some cells called this.

Flagella

300

This is probably one of the most abundant cells around.

Prokaryote

300

These are the extension of the membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum

Golgi bodies

300

This is the process whereby plants and algea convert CO2 and H2O into glucose

Photosynthesis

400

This is the barrel-shaped organelles found in animal cells

Centrioles

400

This allows Prokaryotes the live in many unique situations.

Lack of a nuclear membrane

400

Ribosomes attach to an extensive system of flatten membranes is called this.

Endoplasmic reticulum

400

A centriole attached to the cytoplasmic side of a plasma membrane is called this

Basal body

500

This is an organelle that is only in plant cells (where photosynthesis occurs)

Chloroplasts

500

The term prokaryote means this.

Before the nucleus

500

Some protozoa have this that help them expel excess water

Contractile vacuoles

500

This is a membrane-bound structure formed on the ends of the Golgi bodies that contain proteins or other compounds synthesized by a cell
