Cell Organelles Worksheet

Complete the following table by writing the name of the cell part or organelle in the right hand column
that matches the structure/ function in the left hand column. A cell party may be used more then once.

Cell Part
Structure and Function

1. Stores material with in the cell. vacuole

Ribosome
2. The sites of protein synthesis

3. Transport materials within the cell Rough endoplasmic reticulum

4. The region inside the cell except for the Cytoplasm

nucleus.

5. Organelle that manages or controls all Nucleus

the cell functions in a eukaryotic cell

6. Digests excess or worn-out cell parts, Lysosome

food particles and invading viruses and
bacteria.

7. Provider temporary storage of food, vacuole

enzymes and waste products.

8. Firm, protective structure that gives the Cell wall

cell its shape in plants, fungi, most
bacteria and some protests.

9. Produces a usable form of energy for Mitochondria

the cell

10. Packages proteins for transport out of Golgi apparatus

the cell
Rough endoplasmic reticulum
11. Site where ribosomes are made
12. The membrane surrounding the cell, Plasma membrane
controls what goes in and out

13. Name for the collection of DNA in the Chromosomes

nucleus of a eukaryotic cell
Xylem
14. Consists of hollow tubes which provide
support for the cell

Flagella
15. Smart hair-like structures used for
movement or sensing things
