d. membrane that surrounds and protects the cell.
e. sac filled with digestive chemicals.
f. structures that convert nutrients to energy.
g. passageways where chemicals are made.
h. jelly - like substance within the cell membrane.
i. structure that manufactures ribosomes.
j. structure that contains dna and regulates genes.
k. package created by the golgi apparatus.
l. small structure that synthesizes proteins.
m. sac that stores water, nutrients, or waste products.
n. tubules and filaments that give the cell its shape.

Explanation:

Cytoplasm is the jelly - like substance within the cell membrane. Lysosome is a sac filled with digestive chemicals. Mitochondria convert nutrients to energy. Centriole organizes the motion of chromosomes. Endoplasmic reticulum are passageways where chemicals are made. Vacuole stores water, nutrients, or waste products. Cell membrane surrounds and protects the cell. Nucleus contains DNA and regulates genes. Cytoskeleton gives the cell its shape. Ribosome synthesizes proteins. Nuclear membrane surrounds and protects the nucleus. Golgi apparatus is a stack of membranes that packages chemicals. Vesicle is a package created by the Golgi apparatus. Nucleolus manufactures ribosomes.
