#1
Front (Question)

mitochondrion

Back (Answer)

bean-shaped organelle that supplies energy to the cell and has its own ribosomes and DNA

#2
Front (Question)

vacuole

Back (Answer)

organelle used to store materials such as food, water, enzymes and ions, that are needed by the cell

#3
Front (Question)

lysosome

Back (Answer)

organelle that 1) contains enzymes, 2) defends a cell against bacteria and viruses, 3) breaks down damaged or worn-out cell parts

#4
Front (Question)

centriole

Back (Answer)

small cylinder-shaped organelle made of protein tubes (microtubules) arranged in a circle; aids cell division (mitosis)

#5
Front (Question)

cell wall

Back (Answer)

rigid structure that gives protection, support and shape to cells in plants, algae, fungi and bacteria

#6
Front (Question)

chloroplast

Back (Answer)

organelle composed of many membranes used to convert solar energy into chemical energy

#7
Front (Question)

cytoskeleton

Back (Answer)

network of proteins, such as microtubules and microfilaments, inside a eukaryotic cell that supports and shapes the cell

#8
Front (Question)

nucleus

Back (Answer)

organelle composed of a double membrane, or phospholipid bilayer, that acts as the storehouse for most of a cell’s DNA

#9
Front (Question)

endoplasmic reticulum

Back (Answer)

network of thin, folded membranes that produce, process and distribute proteins

#10
Front (Question)

ribosome

Back (Answer)

organelle that links amino acids together to form proteins

#11
Front (Question)

golgi apparatus

Back (Answer)

stack of flat, membrane-enclosed spaces containing enzymes that process, sort and deliver proteins

#12
Front (Question)

vesicle

Back (Answer)

small organelle that contains and transports materials within the cytoplasm
