- lysosome
- digest the worn out parts of cell. "clean up" crew. common in animal cells not in plant.
- chloroplast
- where food is made for plant cell. contain chlorophyll
- name 3 organelles that are for plant cells only
- chloroplast, cell wall, chlorophyll
- nucleus
- control center of cell. send chemical messages to other organelles to tell them what to do. most obvious part of cell.
- ribosomes
- where protein is made. travel on the endoplasmic reticulum
- mitochondria
- make energy for cell. "power house"
- nucleolus
- round body found inside nucleous. where ribosomes are made. allow materials to go in and out. responsible for providing cell with unique characteristics
- chromosomes
- found inside nucleus. thread-like structures that contain DNA and genes.
- cell membrane
- allow materials to enter and exit the cell. "gatekeeper"
- endoplasmic reticulm
- move materials around in cell. "railway" system
- golgi complex
- receive, package, deliver proteins to organelles in cell
- vacuole
- store water, other materials. bigger in plant cell than animal. "storage"

- vacuole
- cell wall
- shape and support plant cell. non-living
- cytoplasm
- "jelly-like" substance that holds all the organelles
- chlorophyll
- green chemical which traps energy from sunlight to produce food for plants
- centriole
- only found in animal cells. help with cell division.
- organelles
