Cell Riddles Answer key cell wall nucleus cytoplasm mitochondrian central vacuole cell membrane chloroplast Golgi apparatus endoplasmic reticulum lysosome ribosomes Riddle #1 Riddle #6 I am the jelly-like fluid inside the cell. I provide an area of movement for all the dissolved molecules that keep the cell working. I am the ___cytoplasm___. I am a food producer for plant cells. I absorb light energy from the sun and use it to convert carbon dioxide and water to sugar and oxygen. I am not found I am a _chloroplasts______. Riddle #2 Riddle #7 I am a thin protective layer around the cell, but I am not one solid piece. I have tiny openings that allow materials to pass in and out of the cell. I am the __cell membrane______. We build proteins in the cell. We can be found in several places in the cell, including both ERs. We are _ribosomes____. Riddle #8 Riddle #3 When a cell needs energy, I take in nutrients, break them down, and supply energy to the cell. I can also convert stored energy in the cell to food. I am a __mitochondria__. I am the “brain” of the cell, and I control all the activities of the cell. I am located in the cytoplasm, but you would not find me in prokaryotic cells. I am the __nucleus___. Riddle #9 Riddle #4 I am a large storage unit in the cell. I am very large in plant cells, and I store water, food and wastes. I help support the plant. When I start to shrink, due to a lack of water, the plant may wilt. I am the __central vacuole_____. Riddle #5 I act like a digestive system in an animal cell. I contain enzymes that break down wastes and other materials. I am a __lysosome___. I am the cell’s transport system. There are two types of me, rough and smooth. The rough type has ribosomes attached. I am the __ER___. Riddle #10 I am found only in plant cells and prokaryotes. I am the outermost part of the plant cell. I provide support and protection and give plants their shape, since they don’t have bones. I am the __cell wall____. Riddle #11 I gather molecules and make them more complex. I store these molecules or send them into the cytoplasm or out of the cell. I also process proteins produced by the ER and ribosomes. I am the __Golgi Apparatus___.
