The Cell and its Parts
Directions: Answer the following from the PowerPoint and clues provided.
Cells:
1. Bacterial cells are known as __prokaryotic____ cells, meaning __pre nucleus__.
2. Plant and animal cells are known as __eukaryotic__ cells.
3. The common function of all cells is the production of __proteins_____.
Organelles:
1. This double layered organelle produces ATP from the nutrients it receives.
Also known as the “power house”. ________mitochondrion_________
2. It is the ‘brain’ of the cell, in charge of all of the cells functions.
__nucleus________
3. Before this organelle exports proteins, it modifies them and packs them in
structures called vesicles._______Golgi__________.
4. This cellular organelle contains phospholipids, cholesterol, and transport
proteins and works on a “fluid mosaic model”.___plasma membrane__.
5. This is the liquid part or “soup” of the cell. _____cytoplasm________ .
6. This group of flattened sacs is an extension of the nucleus and is important in
the synthesis of lipids and membrane proteins______smooth ER_________.
7. This is not a membrane bound organelle. It is very small and is found in
eukaryotes as well as in prokaryotes and is vital in the production of proteins.
_____ribosome______.
8. A small round organelle located near the center of the cell inside the nucleus used
in making ribosomes. ______nucleolus____________.
9. This cellulose reinforced cell part encloses a plant cell but not an animal cell.
_______cell wall_________
10. Chlorophyll is the main pigment found in the cellular organelle known as the
_____chloroplasts______
11. Cellular organelles move around the cell through the aid of thin fibers and
filaments known collectively as the ____cytoskeleton_______.
12. All cellular organelles working together can be compared to a __factory___.
