Cytoplasm • The region between the cell membrane and the nucleus. Many organelles are found here and this fluid is constantly in motion. • ALL CELLS

Mitochondria • Produce most of the energy that the cell needs to carry out

Mitochondria • Produce most of the energy that the cell needs to carry out its functions. • PLANT AND ANIMAL

Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) • A series of passageways that carry proteins and other materials

Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) • A series of passageways that carry proteins and other materials from one part of a cell to another. • PLANT AND ANIMAL

Ribosomes • Factories that produce proteins. • ALL CELLS

Ribosomes • Factories that produce proteins. • ALL CELLS

Golgi Bodies • The cell’s mailroom. They receive proteins and other newly formed materials

Golgi Bodies • The cell’s mailroom. They receive proteins and other newly formed materials from the ER, package them, and distribute them to other parts of the cell. • PLANT AND ANIMAL CELLS

Chloroplast • Capture energy from sunlight and use it to produce energy for the

Chloroplast • Capture energy from sunlight and use it to produce energy for the cell. • PLANT CELLS

Vacuoles • The storage area for the cell. They store food and other necessary

Vacuoles • The storage area for the cell. They store food and other necessary materials. • PLANT AND ANIMAL

Lysosomes • They contain chemicals that break down large food particles into smaller ones.

Lysosomes • They contain chemicals that break down large food particles into smaller ones. They also break down old cell parts and release substances so that they can be used again. • PLANT AND ANIMAL.
