Term	Definition
Mitochondria	Converts chemical energy into energy that is useable by the cell.
Cell Wall	Rigid outermost cell layer found in plants and certain algae, bacteria, and fungi. This cell part is not found in animal cells. It is involved in support and protection of the cell.
Cell Membrane	Contains the organelles and cytoplasm of a cell; cell part is that it is not solid so it permits nutrients and water to pass into and waste to pass out of the cell.
Endoplasmic Reticulum	Makes and transports lipids and proteins, removes toxins, and is a roadway for transportation in the cell. Ribosomes are found on some of this organelle.
Nucleus	Contains genetic material; considered the control center of the cell.
Lysosome	Involved in cleanup in the cell; digests and recycles materials in the cell. It is also involved in waste removal.
Cytoplasm	Contains the organelles, organelles are suspended in this cell part. Allows transportation in the cell.
Ribosomes	An organelle that is the site where protein is built in the cell. DNA, genetic code, is used to build proteins at this organelle.
Vacuole	Organelle involved in storage of nutrients, water, and cellular waste.
Golgi Apparatus, Golgi, or Golgi Body	Stores, modifies and packages proteins; gets proteins ready for specific functions and prepares them for transport.
Chloroplasts	Converts carbon dioxide, water, and energy from sunlight to produce glucose (sugar) and oxygen. Found in plant cells and some algae.
