Question
practice: organelle identification
complete the table by writing the name of the cell part beside its structure - function.
| structure/function | organelle |
|---|---|
| 2. destroys harmful substances or worn - out cell parts | |
| 3. large storage container for water, food, and waste only in plant cells | |
| 4. made of two layers of phospholipids. controls what moves in and out of the cell | |
| 5. where food is broken down during cellular respiration so atp can be released to be used by the cell | |
| 6. makes lipids | |
| 7. acts like a whip to move the entire cell | |
| 8. makes ribosomes | |
| 9. processes and sorts proteins to be shipped | |
| 10. made of proteins. provides structural support for animal cells | |
| 11. covered with ribosomes and surrounding the nucleus | |
| 12. where photosynthesis occurs | |
| 13. made of microtubules. help the cell divide by pulling chromosomes apart | |
| 14. made of cellulose in plants, chitin in fungi, and peptidoglycan in bacteria | |
| 15. transport proteins around the cell |
Brief Explanations
Each organelle is identified based on its key structural or functional characteristics in cell biology.
| Structure/Function | Organelle |
|---|---|
| 2. Destroys harmful substances or worn-out cell parts | Lysosome |
| 3. Large storage container for water, food, and waste only in plant cells | Central Vacuole |
| 4. Made of two layers of phospholipids. Controls what moves in and out of the cell | Cell Membrane/Plasma Membrane |
| 5. Where food is broken down during cellular respiration so ATP can be released to be used by the cell | Mitochondria |
| 6. Makes lipids | Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum |
| 7. Acts like a whip to move the entire cell | Flagellum |
| 8. Makes ribosomes | Nucleolus |
| 9. Processes and sorts proteins to be shipped | Golgi Apparatus |
| 10. Made of proteins. Provides structural support for animal cells | Cytoskeleton |
| 11. Covered with ribosomes and surrounding the nucleus | Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum |
| 12. Where photosynthesis occurs | Chloroplast |
| 13. Made of microtubules. Help the cell divide by pulling chromosomes apart | Centrioles |
| 14. Made of cellulose in plants, chitin in fungi, and peptidoglycan in bacteria | Cell Wall |
| 15. Transport proteins around the cell | Vesicles |
