the left hand column.

Lysosome Vesicles Cell Membrane Cytoskeleton Endoplasmic Reticulum
Nucleus Cilia Chromatin Mitochondria Flagella

Function Organelle

1. Stores material within the cell


2. The sites of protein synthesis
3. Jelly-like substance in the cell

4. Organelle that manages or controls all the cell functions in a eukaryotic cell

5. Contains chlorophyll, a green pigment that traps energy from sunlight and gives
plants their green color
6. Digests excess or worn-out cell parts, food particles and invading viruses or bacteria
7. Provides temporary storage of food, enzymes and waste products

8. Firm, protective structure that gives the cell its shape in plants, fungi, most bacteria
and some protists
9. Produces a usable form of energy for the cell

10. Packages proteins for transport out of the cell

11. Site where ribosomes are made

12. Provides support for the cell

sensing things
15. Collection of DNA in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells
16. Longer whip-like structures used for movement
