Looking Inside Cells

This organelle is the UPS/FedEx/Post Office of the cell. It receives proteins and other newly formed materials from the ER, packages them, and distributes them to other parts of the cell. This is known as the......

• Vacuole

• Cell Wall

• Plastid

This type of cell is larger, much more complex, and is what you will find in all multicellular organisms.

• Eukaryotic

• Prokaryotic

Which organelle acts as the cell's control center or boss, telling all of the other organelles what they need to do?

• Flagella

• Organelle

• Mitochondria

• Nucleus

NGSS.MS-LS1-6

This part of the cell is only found in plant cells and is the reason that they have more of a block/box/rigid shape.

• Vesicle

• Cell Membrane

• Cell wall

• Chloroplast

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

This organelle is found in both plant and animal cells, but is much smaller in an animal cell, and is responsible for storing things water, nutrients, and even waste.

• vacuole

• ribosome

• mitochondria

• centriole

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

This organelle is found in animal cells and less frequently in plant cells. It uses powerful digestive enzymes to "clean up" things up like old worn out cell materials.

• ribosome

• lysosome

• mitochondria

• centriole

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

All cells (prokaryotic and eukaryotic) have an organelle that allows certain materials to enter and exit the cell, while blocking other materials that could be harmful. This is the "security guard" or "gate" of the cell. This is the ......

• cell wall

• nuclear membrane

• cell membrane

• Golgi apparatus
