A
START HERE!
I hold the cell's DNA
and control its
activities.
✓ Nucleus
B
Inside the nucleus, I
make ribosomes.
✓ Nucleolus
C
I'm the rigid layer
outside a plant cell's
membrane.
✓ Cell wall
D
I release energy from
food and make ATP.
✓ Mitochondria
E
I build proteins by
linking amino acids.
✓ Ribosome
F
I store water, food,
and waste in the cell.
✓ Vacuole
G
I'm the jelly-like
fluid that fills the
cell.
✓ Cytoplasm
H
I'm a folded network
that moves proteins
around.
✓ Endoplasmic reticulum
I
I package and ship
proteins (the post
office).
✓ Golgi apparatus
J
I use chlorophyll for
photosynthesis in
plants.
✓ Chloroplast
K
I use enzymes to digest
waste and old parts.
✓ Lysosome
L
I control what enters
and exits the cell.
✓ Cell membrane
