Name that Organelle!
Generate energy for the cell Mitochondria
Shape and supports plant cells Cell Wall
Watery, gel-like material in which cell parts move Cytoplasm
Aids in production of proteins and lipids (HAS RIBOSOMES ON IT) Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
Stores and protects DNA Nucleus
Convert solar energy into chemical energy through photosynthesis Chloroplasts
Modifies, packages, and transports proteins (the Fed Ex of the cell) Golgi Apparatus
Chromosomes Directs cell activities, exists in the nucleus (The Director of the Cell) Chromosomes
Endoplasmic Reticulum Aids in production of proteins and lipids (there is a rough and a smooth one) Endoplasmic Reticulum
Temporarily stores materials (water, food, ions, & enzymes) Central Vacuole
Digest & recycle foreign materials or worn-out parts Lysosomes
Link amino acids together to form proteins (protein factories!) Ribosomes
Surrounds and protects the nucleus Nuclear Membrane/ Nuclear Envelope
Controls what goes in and out of the cell Cell Membrane (plasma membrane)
Isolate and transport specific molecules Isolate and transport specific molecules. Lysosomes are a type of this organelle. Vesicles
Part of some animal and bacterial cells that help them move Flagella
