Large central vacuole

9. I’m a real “powerhouse.”
That’s plain to see.
I break down food
To release energy.
What am I? (1)

10. I’m strong and stiff
Getting through me is tough.
I’m found only in plants,
But I guess that’s enough.
What am I? (2)

11. I’m the “brain” of the cell
Or so they say.
I regulate activities
From day to day.
What am I? (3)

12. Found only in plant cells,
I’m green as can be.
I make food for the plant
Using the sun’s energy.
What am I? (4)

13. I’m a series of tubes,
Found throughout the cell.
I transport proteins
And other things as well.
What am I? (5)

14. I’m full of holes,
Flexible, and thin.
I control what gets out
As well as what comes in.
What am I? (6)

15. Proteins are made here
Even though I’m quite small.
You can find me in the cytoplasm
Or attached to E.R.’s wall.
What am I? (7)

16. I’ve been called a “storage tank”
By those with little taste.
I’m a sac filled with water,
Food, enzymes, or waste.
What am I? (8)

17. What am I? (9) The internal structures are safe and sound,
In front of the membrane is where I’m found,
Support and protect is what I do,
But permeable so I can let information through.
What am I? (9)

18. What am I? (10) I make energy for the cell,
If I do say so myself, I do it pretty well,
Give me a double membrane and some oxygen is key,
So I can convert chemical energy in food to ATP.
What am I? (10)

19. What am I? (11) Give me some molecules in vesicles,
That arrive all jumbled and in a pickle.
I’ll collect, sort and repackage them as they are meant
So your molecules will be sent
You may think I’m simple or just a FedEx,
But really I’m quite complex.
What am I? (11)

20. What am I? (12) We contain digestive enzymes,
And live inside the cell.
Not only do we digest materials that do not rhyme.
We engulf bacteria and viruses as well.
Call us to do your recycling
We’ll be there and fast like lightning.
What am I? (12)

21. What am I? (13) I’m smoother than the rest,
As I have no attached ribosomes.
Detoxifying harmful substances is what I do best,
Liver cells is one place I call home.
What am I? (13)

22. What am I? (14) I’m attached to the nuclear membrane
Membranous pathways I must maintain,
Ribosomes are attached to me,
So I can make and send proteins to the Golgi body.
What am I? (14)

23. What am I? (15) I’m the structural network of the cell,
I keep it’s shape and do it well,
Throughout the entire cytoplasm I do reach,
Holding onto all the organelles in place like a leach.
What am I? (15)

24. What am I? (16) A jelly-like substance, that I am
Made mostly of water thank you ma’am.
I allow movement in the cell,
And I hold all the organelles.
What am I? (16)

25. What are we? (17) We are like construction guys.
We build proteins in front of your eyes.
We are tiny organelles,
But you can still find us inside the cells.
What are we? (17)

26. I’m a protein,
I’m a cylinder,
I’m made of tublin,
Find me in a eukaryotic cell
Find me during cell division.
What am I? (18)
