cell membrane Outside thin layer of a cell that controls what goes in and out. PLANTS AND ANIMALS cell membrane (picture) cell wall Outside rigid (hard) layer of a plant cell to provide protection and support. PLANTS ONLY cell wall (picture) chloroplast Oval shaped organelle in a plant cell that uses the sun's energy to make glucose. PLANTS ONLY chloroplast (picture) cytoplasm jellylike fluid that holds organelles in place. PLANTS AND ANIMALS cytoplasm (picture) Pointing to jelly inside endoplasmic reticulum endoplasmic reticulum (picture) "highway" in a cell to transport materials. Looks like a maze. PLANTS AND ANIMALS golgi body packages and ships materials throughout the cell. Looks like a stack of pancakes. PLANTS AND ANIMALS golgi body (picture) lysosome organelle that breaks down waste for the cell. ANIMALS ONLY lysosome (picture) mitochondria Powerhouse of the cell. Creates energy for the cell (ATP) during respiration. Looks like bean with a maze inside. PLANTS AND ANIMALS nuclear membrane Outside layer of the nucleus which controls what goes in and out of the nucleus. PLANTS AND ANIMALS nuclear membrane (picture) nucleus control center of the cell -- contains hereditary material PLANTS AND ANIMALS nucleus (picture)Large and small pink circles organelle a tiny structure that carries out a specific function for a cell ribosome Builds proteins for the cell. Looks like small circles. PLANTS AND ANIMALS ribosome (picture)- Small circles vacuole vacuole (picture) storage area for a cell (often holds food and water). PLANTS ONLY
