Organelles Labeling

Front

What is the function of the chloroplast?

Back

Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells that conduct photosynthesis, converting light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose.

Front

What is the cytoplasm?

Back

Cytoplasm is the jelly-like substance within a cell that contains organelles and is the site of many metabolic processes.

Front

What are cilia?

Back

Cilia are short, hair-like structures on the surface of some cells that help in movement and sensing the environment.

Front

What is the nucleolus?

Back

The nucleolus is a dense region within the nucleus of a cell where ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is produced and ribosome assembly begins.

Front

What is the centriole?

Back

Centrioles are cylindrical structures that play a key role in cell division by helping to organize the mitotic spindle.

Front

What is the cell wall?

Back

The cell wall is a rigid outer layer found in plant cells, fungi, and some bacteria that provides structural support and protection.

Front

What is the cell membrane?

Back

The cell membrane is a semi-permeable barrier that surrounds the cell, controlling the movement of substances in and out.

Front

What are ribosomes?

Back

Ribosomes are small structures that synthesize proteins by translating messenger RNA (mRNA) into polypeptide chains.

Front

What is the function of mitochondria?

Back

Mitochondria are known as the powerhouse of the cell, generating ATP through cellular respiration.

Front

What is the role of the nucleus?

Back

The nucleus is the control center of the cell, containing the cell's genetic material (DNA) and regulating gene expression.
