Cell Organelles Quiz

Site of protein synthesis

Produces ribosomes, found inside nucleus

Network of membranes that transports proteins, does not have ribosomes attached

Whip-like projection used for cell movement (ex. Sperm have this organelle)

Control center of the cell; stores DNA

Site of photosynthesis

Converts glucose (sugar) into smaller energy molecules (ATP)

Involved in cellular reproduction

Made of microtubules and microfilaments; gives the cell shape and support

Network of membranes embedded with ribosomes; produces and

transports proteins

Contains strong digestive enzymes; “clean-up crew” of the cell

Provides support for plant, fungi and bacterial cells. (not found in animal cells)

Type of cell that has a nucleus

Surrounds the nucleus and has pores for ribosomes to exit

Fluid-like material that supports cell organelles

Hair-like structures used for locomotion

Type of cell that lacks a nucleus

Packages proteins; “Post Office” of the cell
