Vacuole Storage of water, starch, fats, etc.
Golgi Body Stores, packages & secretes fats & proteins
Microfilaments Associated with muscle contractions in larger organisms
Chromatin Uncoiled DNA
Microtubules Provide shape & rigidity to the cell
Cell Wall Support & protection for plant cell
Centrioles Moves chromosomes during cell division
Chloroplast Site of photosynthesis
Ribosomes Makes Proteins
Plasma Membrane Controls materials in & out of the cell
Rough ER Acts like a conveyer belt and transports proteins
Nucleus Control center of the cell
Cytoskeleton Acts as a scaffold to provide shape & support for the cell
