9785719219	Chloroplast	Site of photosynthesis Converts solar energy into potential energy in the glucose molecule plant cells only	0
9785719220	Peroxisomes	makes hydrogen peroxide to detoxify alcohol or convert lipids to be used for energy plant and animal cells	1
9785719221	Amyloplast	Stores starch amylose and turns in into glucosec some plant cells	2
9785719222	Chromoplast	Responsible for the colors in plant 4 to 5 um plant cells only	3
9785719223	Plasmodesmata	holes and channels in the cell wall that connect adjacent cells; allows stuff to pass through plant cells only	4
9785719224	Tight Junctions	Establish barriers that prevents leakage between cells animal cells only	5
9785719225	Desmosomes	Joins two cells together by the cytoskeleton joins by rivets into strong sheets animal cells only	6
9785719226	Gap Junctions	Connects two adjacent cells, allows subjects to pass through tunnels; animal cells only	7
9785719227	Contractile Vacuole	Osmoregulation Takes water from cell then pushes the water out through cell membrane or wall Protists and algae	8
9785719228	Cell Membrane	Protects cell from surroundings Allows certain substances in, keeps others out Phospholipid bilayer with proteins plant and animal	9
9785719229	Nucleus	Brain of cell contains dna plant and animal	10
9785719230	Nucleolus	Non-membranus structure involved in production of ribosomes; located in the nucleus plant and animal	11
9785719231	Centrioles	Small microtubles arranged in specific ways aids in cell division Animal only	12
9785719232	Ribosomes	complexes that makes proteins; free in cytosol or bound to rough ER or nuclear envelope plant and animal	13
9785719233	Golgi Apparatus	organelle active in synthesis, modification, sorting, and secretion of cell products Plant and animal	14
9785719234	Endoplasmic Reticulum Rough+Smooth	network of membranous sacs and tubes active in making and transporting proteins and lipids Plant and animal	15
9785719235	Mitochondria	organelle where cellular resperation occurs and most ATP is generated plant and animal	16
9785719236	Lysosomes	digestive organelle where macromolecules are hydrolyzed (broken down); autophagy; apoptosis animal only	17
9785719237	Cytoskeleton	reinforces cell's shape;functions in cell movement; components are made of protein plant and animal	18
9785719238	Microtubles	chromosome movement, cell division processes, and maintains cell shape MOVING CELL PARTS plant and animal	19
9785719239	Microfilaments	helps with cell movement, gives shape,cytoplasmic streaming Thinnest filament thin, solid rods actin, myosin INVOLVED in MUSCLE CONTRACTION animal and plant	20
9785719240	Intermediate Filaments	shape cell, maintains positions of some organelles proteins (keratin) in coils	21
9785719241	Central Vacuole	Largest organelle in plant cell; maintains turgor pressure because it is inflated with water. plant only	22
9785719242	Cell Wall	outer layer that maintains cell's shape and protects from damage made of cellulose and other polysachrides, and proteins Plant only	23
9785719243	Cilia	located on outside of cell. pushes cell forward; short, numerous, and hair-like plant and animal	24
9785719244	Flagellum	located on the outside of a cell; used for locomotion whip like structure made of microtubles; 9 pair ring outside, 1 pair inside	25
9785719245	centrosome	made of two centrioles; helps rearrange the cytoskeleton for cell division	26
