Microtubules

Front

Protein cylinders that move organelles

Back

Smooth ER

Front

Lacks ribosomes, synthesizes lipid molecules

Back

Golgi apparatus

Front

Processes, packages, and secretes modified proteins

Back

Cytoplasm

Front

Semifluid matrix outside nucleus that contains organelles

Back

Plasma membrane

Front

Outer surface that regulates entrance and exit of molecules (surrounds cytoplasm)

Back

Nucleolus

Front

Region that produces subunits of ribosomes

Back

Granum

Front

A stack of chlorophyll-containing thylakoids in a chloroplast (only in plant cells)

Back

Ribosomes

Front

Particles that carry out protein synthesis

Back

Central vacuole

Front

Large, fluid-filled sac that stores metabolites and helps maintain turgor pressure (only in plant cells)

Back

Peroxisome

Front

Vesicle that is involved in fatty acid metabolism

Back

Rough ER

Front

Studded with ribosomes that synthesize proteins

Back

Endoplasmic Reticulum

Front

Protein and lipid metabolism

Back

Cytoskeleton

Front

Maintains cell shape and assists movement of cell parts

Back

Vesicle

Front

Small membrane-bounded sac that stores and transports substances

Back

Centrioles

Front

Short cylinders of microtubules of unknown function (only in animal cells)

Back

Cell wall

Front

Outer surface that shapes, supports, and protects cell (only in plant cells)

Back

Polyribosome

Front

String of ribosomes simultaneously synthesizing same protein

Back

Chromatin

Front

Diffuse threads containing DNA and protein

Back

Nuclear envelope

Front

Double membrane with nuclear pores that encloses nucleus

Back

Lysosome

Front

Vesicle that digests macro-molecules and even cell parts (only in animal cells)

Back

Chloroplast

Front

Carries out photosynthesis, producing sugars (only in plant cells)

Back

Actin filaments

Front

Protein fibers that play a role in change of shape and movement of cell and organelles

Back

Centrosome

Front

Microtubule organizing center (contains a pair of centrioles in animal cells, lacks centrioles in plant cells)

Back

Intermediate filaments

Front

Protein fibers that provide stability of shape

Back

Middle lamella

Front

Cements together the primary cell walls of adjacent plant cells (only in plant cells)

Back

Mitochondrion

Front

Organelle that carries out cellular respiration, producing ATP molecules

Back

Nucleus

Front

Command center of the cell
