Color Coded Cells
Read the descriptions and write in the name of the cell organelle. Use the organelles listed in the word bank.
Identify if the description is the organelle’s structure or function, by circling. Color the organelle the color
listed on the cell(s).
Cell Membrane
Cell Wall
Nucleus
Cytoplasm
Mitochondrion
Chloroplast
Vacuole
Lysosome
