Parts of a Cell
1. The following PowerPoint is presented
in class for students to take notes.
Class notes are the primary source
students use to create their cell model.
2. Cell A phospholipids layer that covers a cell’s surface
Membrane and acts as a barrier between the inside of a cell
and the cell’s environment.
3. Cell Cellulose fibers that surrounds the cell membrane
Wall of plants cells and provides strength and support
to the cell.
(Found in plants only)
4. Nucleolus Contains the cell’s DNA and serves as the control
center of the cell.
5. X x X
x Y X
DNA Deoxyribonucleic Acid is the heredity material that
controls all the activities of the cell, contains the
X x X information to make new cells, and provides
x Y X instructions for making proteins.
6. X x X
x Y X
Nuclear A phospholipids layer that surrounds the
Membrane nucleolus and acts as a barrier between the
nucleolus and the rest of the cell.
7. X x X
x Y X
Nucleus Together the nuclear membrane, nucleolus, and
DNA make up the nucleus.

Large Stores water and other materials.
Vacuole (Founds in plant cells only.)
9. X x X
x Y X
Rough Delivers material inside the cell, packages
Endoplasmic proteins for release from the cell, and holds
Reticulum ribosome.
10. X x X
x Y X
Ribosomes The site where amino acids are hooked together
to make proteins, the building blocks of cells.
11. X x X

Smooth Makes lipids, breaks down drugs and other
Endoplasmic materials.
Reticulum
12. X x X
x Y X
Golgi Processes and transports materials to the ER and
Complex out of the cell.
13. X x X
x Y X
Cytoskeleton Protein scaffolding that supports the cell and
provides a way for cell parts to travel.
14. X x X
x Y X
Vesicles A membrane covered compartment that forms
when part of the cell membrane surrounds an
object and pinches off. Vesicles are the package
that holds materials being transported into and
out of the cell.
15. X x X
x Y X
Lysosome A special type of vesicle that digests food
particles, waste cell parts, and foreign invaders.
(Only in Animals)
16. X x X
x Y X
Chloroplasts Makes food using the energy of sunlight and
carbon-dioxide.
(Found in plants only)
17. X x X
x Y X
Mitochondria Where food molecules are burned with oxygen to
release energy in the form of ATP.
18. X x X
x Y X
Centrioles Cylindrical structure that pulls copies of DNA into
two separate cells during mitosis.
19. X x X
x Y X
Cytoplasm Liquid that gives structure to the cell.
