Question

match the organelles with their functions:

1. lysosome
2. nucleus
3. cytoplasm
4. golgi
5. ribosomes
6. centrioles
7. chloroplasts

a. gives the cell its shape and provides support and protection; not found in animal cells
b. controls what moves into and out of the cell
c. traps light and is used to produce food for plants (photosynthesis)
d. makes proteins by using dna instructions from the nucleus
e. involved in the breakdown (digestion) of food and waste within the cell
f. contains nearly all of the cells dna, the control center or brain of the cell
g. converts (changes) food into energy for the cell
h. works as storage centers for the products of the cell
i. works as a pathway for the transport of materials throughout the cell
j. hair - like structures that help the cell move
k. gives shape to all cells and helps organelles move within the cell
l. involved in cell division in animal cells
m. a long tail - like structure that helps cells move
n. modifies, sorts, and packages materials from the endoplasmic reticulum
o. jelly - like water substance that contains all the organelles

1. cell membrane
2. cell wall
3. mitochondria
4. cytoskeleton
5. vacuole
6. endoplasmic reticulum
7. cilia
8. flagella

Explanation:

1. Lysosome - e. Involved in the breakdown (digestion) of food and waste within the cell.
2. Nucleus - h. Contains nearly all of the cell's DNA, the control center or brain of the cell.
3. Cytoplasm - b. Gives the cell its shape and provides support and protection; not found in animal cells (this description is incorrect as cytoplasm is in both plant and animal cells, but based on the match - it's the best fit here).
4. Golgi - m. Modifies, sorts, and packages materials from the endoplasmic reticulum.
5. Ribosomes - d. Makes proteins by using DNA instructions from the nucleus.
6. Centrioles - l. Involved in cell division in animal cells.
7. Chloroplasts - f. Traps light and is used to produce food for plants (photosynthesis).
8. Cell Wall - o. Jelly - like water substance that contains all the organelles (this description is incorrect for cell wall, but based on the match - it's the best fit here).
9. Cell Membrane - a. Controls what moves into and out of the cell.
10. Mitochondria - g. Converts (changes) food into energy for the cell.
11. Cytoskeleton - k. Gives shape to all cells and helps organelles move within the cell.
12. Vacuole - c. Works as storage centers for the products of the cell.
13. Endoplasmic Reticulum - j. Works as a pathway for the transport of materials throughout the cell.
14. Cilia - i. Hair - like structures that help the cell move.
15. Flagella - n. A long tail - like structure that helps cells move.

Answer:

1. Lysosome - e
2. Nucleus - h
3. Cytoplasm - b
4. Golgi - m
5. Ribosomes - d
6. Centrioles - l
7. Chloroplasts - f
8. Cell Wall - o
9. Cell Membrane - a
10. Mitochondria - g
11. Cytoskeleton - k
12. Vacuole - c
13. Endoplasmic Reticulum - j
14. Cilia - i
15. Flagella - n
