lysosome

I am the 

ribosomes

rough ER

vesicle

Golgi 

Riddle - I'm the powerhouse of the cell,
Converting fuels into energy's swell.
I have my own DNA,
And cristae to show the way.
What organelle am I?

ribosome

mitochondria

endoplasmic reticulum

chloroplast

Riddle - I'm like a suitcase
I contain the director all processes
My contents are passed from generation to generation
What organelle am I?

Nucleolus

Golgi body

Nucleus

Mitochondria

Riddle - 
I'm like your UPS store,
Where proteins are modified.
I sort and package them up,
Ensuring they're classified.
What organelle am I?

Endoplasmic reticulum

Vacuole

Smooth ER

Golgi apparatus

Riddle - 
I'm the workshop of the cell,
Where proteins go after they are made.
I have ribosomes galore,
To keep production well-played.
What organelle am I?

Smooth ER

Endoplasmic Reticulum

Rough ER

Ribosome

Riddle - 
No nucleus have I,
My DNA floats free.
I'm small and single-celled,
A prokaryote you see.
What am I?

protist

chloroplast

plant cell

bacteria

Riddle - 
I'm the sacs that break things down,
Recycling what's no longer sound.
I use enzymes to digest,
Keeping the cell free from stress.
What organelle am I?

Peroxisome

Ribosome

Lysosome

Vesicle

Riddle - 
I'm the gatekeepers of the cell,
Controlling the door.
I'm made of lipids and proteins,
Surrounding the cell without doubt.
What structure am I?

cell wall

cell membrane

cytoplasm

plasma wall

Match each structure with their function.

Nucleus

site of protein synthesis

Ribosomes

site of DNA in prokaryotes

Nucleoid Region (in the cytoplasm)

helps with movement

Flagella

Allows entry and exit of nutrients and waste

Cell Wall

site of DNA in eukaryotes
