Hint	Answer	% Correct
Cells genetic control center (contains most of the cells DNA)	Nucleus	100%
Barrier hold cell together.	Cell membrane	67%
Dark spot inside the nucleus that makes ribosomes. (Genes containing the instructions to make ribosomes)	Nucleolus	58%
Assembles amino acid into chains to form proteins.	Ribosome	58%
Store food, water, waste, pigments, poisons. (Plants have one big one and animals have several small ones)	Vacuole	50%
Support and protection, prevents expansion when water enters cell (Plants)	Cell wall	42%
Absorbs light and uses that energy to form organic molecules from CO2 and water.	Chloroplast	42%
The area between the nuclear membrane and cell membrane mostly water, dissolved ions, small molecules, proteins, enzymes.	Cytoplasm	42%
Digests food, recycles, worn out organelles.	Lysosome	42%
Provides energy ATP	Mitochondria	42%
Modifies, sorts, and packages the products of the ER- to be secreted out of the cell or used in another organelle.	Golgi	33%
The name for the DNA in the nucleus when the cell is not dividing, when DNA is not wound up into chromosomes, It is loose and spread out. Controls what goes in and out of the nucleus.	Chromatin	25%
The fluid that surrounds the organelles	Cytosol	25%
A system of interconnected tubes and sacs of membrane that often extends throughout most of the cell.	ER	17%
Transports proteins, modify proteins for export, packages certain proteins into vesicles in order to leave.	Rough ER	17%
Lipid synthesis, hormones, oils and phospolipids stores calcium in muscles cells (Liver cells have lots)	Smooth ER	17%
Merge with Golgi on the side of the ER, products are modified and sent away.	Vesicle	17%
Cylinder(composed of micro-tubules) that is involved with cell division in animal cells.	Centriole	8%
Made of micro-tubules-used for movement	Cilia and Flagella	8%
Reinforce cell shape and anchor certain organelles (bones of the cell)	Intermediate Filaments	8%
Space inside the ER	Lumen	8%
Such as Actin-acid in cell movement and support cell shape	Microfiliments	8%
Shape and support the cell also act as tracks that some organelles walk (If they have motor proteins)	Micro-tubules	8%
Holds individual cells together.	Tight Junctions	8%
How certain organelles work and communicate with each other to make either proteins or lipids. (Nucleus, ribosomes, Rough ER, Smooth ER, Golgi, Micro-tubules, Lysosomes, Vacuoles.)	Endomembrane System	0%
Contain enzymes used in a variety of reactions that break down lipids and destroy toxins.	Peroxisome	0%
Lipids and proteins which forms the external boundary of the cytoplasm of a cell or encloses a vacuole, and regulates the passage of molecules in and out of the cytoplasm.	Plasma Membrane	0%
Channels between the cell walls.	Plasmodesmata	0%
