Who Am I?Organelle Identification Activity

Today you will learn….The function of cell organellesDifferences in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells

Differences in plant and animal cells

1. I am the control center of eukaryotic cells and I hold the cell’s DNA.

2. I am called the powerhouse of the cell. My job is to make energy available to the cell.

3. I am found in plant cells and some protists. I use light to make food for the cell.

4. I have many functions and my location is near the cell control center. I am the site of chemical reactions and I transport RNA and proteins. Sometimes, I contain ribosomes.

5. My job is to suspend the cell organelles.

6. I am an inflexible barrier which gives support to some cells.

7. My job is to digest food particles, old organelles, bacteria, and viruses which enter the cell.

8. My function is to make ribosomes. I am located in the control center of the cell.

9. I am the site of protein synthesis.

10. I am found in animal cells and come in pairs. I aid in cell division.

11. I am a whip-like structure which help cells move.

12. I am a short hair-like structure which help cells move.

13. I am found in all cells and control what goes in and out of the cell.

14. My function is to modify and package proteins for distribution.

15. My size can vary depending on what type of cell I am in, but my job is temporary storage of materials.

16. I am a network of rods and tubes which gives shape to the cell.

Comparing Plant & Animal Cells

Let’s wrap it up…….

17. What 3 structures are found in all cells?

18. Name two organelles that are only found in plant cells.

Let’s wrap it up…….

19. What is the main difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?

20. Give an example of a prokaryotic cell.
