Unit 2 | ES I | Cells and Organelles

Match the following descriptions of Organelles.

• Cytoplasm

• Provides protection, and allows movement of materials in and out of cells

• Nucleus

• the powerhouse of the cell, releases stored energy for the cell

• Cell Membrane

• The control center of the cell. It contains the cell’s DNA

• Mitochondria

• This organelle is covered with ribosomes--where proteins are made

• Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)

• A gel-like substance that provides space for chemical reactions to take place. Organelles ‘float’ here.

What organelle is sometimes referred to as the "brain" of the cell?

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

This organelle PACKAGES proteins for the cell so they can be MOVED AROUND (within and outside of the cells)

• Golgi

• Endoplasmic Reticulum

• Lysosome

• Cell Membrane

NGSS.MS-LS1-6

Choose ALL of the functions of CELL WALL

• Helps provide shape for the plant cell

• Helps provide strength for the plant cell

Which organelle contains chlorophyll where photosynthesis takes place?

• Large Central Vacuole

• Mitochondria

• Chloroplast

• Cytoplasm

NGSS.MS-LS1-6

What does the lysosome do?

• Provides space for chemical reactions to take place. Organelles ‘float’ here

• Surrounds the cell membrane to help provide shape, strength, and rigidity to plants

• Provides protection, and allows movement of materials in and out of cells.

• Breaks down/digests worn out cell parts and destroys foreign material
