Play This Game


Organelles used in Manufacturing
#1 This organelle makes ribosomes Nucleolus
#2 This tiny dot-like organelle is where the amino acids are linked together to make a protein; site of protein synthesis; blue dots on pink membrane ribosome
#3 This organelle is the tubular system that the ribosomes travel in while making protein. rough endoplasmic reticulum
#4 This organelle is where new proteins go to get reorganized and repacked before they leave the cell. golgi body
#5 This organelle is the site of lipid synthesis. smooth endoplasmic reticulum
Organelles of Energy Production, Storage and Digestion
#1 This organelle is the site of photosynthesis- turning light energy into chemical energy chloroplast
#2 This organelle stores water, food and wastes. It is really large in plant cells vacuole (central vacuole in plants)
#3 This organelle is where cellular respiration happens- food is turned into ATP energy mitochondria
#4 This organelle has digestive enzymes that dissolve food and wastes enclosed in vacuoles lysosomes
#5 This organelle is found in protists and acts like a water pump maintaining water homeostasis (labeled #5). contractile vacuole
Organelles of Support, Movement
#1 This organelle surrounds an animal cell and controls what goes in and out; said to be selectively permeable cell membrane
#2 This is found in plants only and gives structure and support to the cell cell wall
#3 This long whip-like tail is what enables euglena to move flagella
#4 This fluid fills the cell and is the site of chemical reactions cytoplasm
#5 These short hairs help paramecia move cilia
Prokaryote or Eukaryote?
#1 Which type of cell is this- prokaryote or eukaryote? eukaryote
#2 Which type of cell is a bacteria- prokaryote or eukaryote? prokaryote
#3 Which is smaller and more simple- a prokaryote or eukaryote? prokaryote
#4 Which has a nucleus and membrane bound organelles- prokaryote or eukaryote? eukaryote
#5 What type of cell probably evolved first- prokaryote or eukaryote? prokaryote
Cell Analogies
#1 Which organelle is like a grocery store- stores water and food for the cell vacuole
#2 Which organelle is like a solar collector- collects and stores suns energy for use later chloroplast
#3 Which organelle is like a highway- transporting proteins while they are being created by ribosomes? endoplasmic reticulum
#4 Heart cells would have a lot of this organelle because they are always moving mitochondria
#5 Which three organelles are like a factory- used to create a product like a protein ribosome, endoplasmic reticulum, golgi body
Final Question
Which organelle is most responsible for maintaining homeostasis of the cell? Cell membrane
