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 part MAY be used
more than once.
Structure/Function
Cell Part
1. Stores material within the cell
vacuole
2. Closely stacked, flattened sacs (plants only)
chloroplast /granum
3. The sites of protein synthesis
ribosome
4. Transports materials within the cell
vesicles
5. The region inside the cell except for the nucleus
cytoplasm
6. Organelle that manages or controls all the cell functions
in a eukaryotic cell
nucleus
7. Contains chlorophyll, a green pigment that traps energy
from sunlight and gives plants their green color
chloroplast
8. Digests excess or worn-out cell parts, food particles and
invading viruses or bacteria
lysosome
9. Small bumps located on portions of the endoplasmic
reticulum
ribosomes
10. Provides temporary storage of food, enzymes and waste
products
vesicle
11. Firm, protective structure that gives the cell its shape in
plants, fungi, most bacteria and some protests
cell wall
12. Produces a usable form of energy for the cell
mitochondria
13. Packages proteins for transport out of the cell
Golgi body
14. Everything inside the cell including the nucleus
cytosol
15. Site where ribosomes are made
nucleolus
16. The membrane surrounding the cell
plasma membrane
17. Provides support for the cell, has two “subparts”
Lipid bilayer
18. Name for the collection of DNA in the nucleus of
eukaryotic cells
