Definition
nucleolus
Term
i'm a real powerhouse
that's plain to see
i break down food
to release energy
Definition
mitochondria
Term
i'm a series of tubes
found throughout the cell
i transport proteins
and other things as well
Definition
ER
Term
I'm strong and stiff
getting through me is tough
i'm found only in plants
but i guess that's enough
Definition
cell wall
Term
i'm full of holes
flexible, and thin
i control what gets out
as well as what gets in
Definition
cell membrane
Term
my name means colored bodies
and i contain dna
i pass on traits to new cells
in a systematic way
Definition
chromosomes
Term
proteins are made here
even though i'm quite small
you can find me in the cytoplasm
or attached to ER's wall
Definition
ribosomes
Term
i'm the brain of the cell
or so they say
i regulate activities
from day to day

nucleus
Term
i've been called a storage tank
by those with little taste
i'm a sac filled with water
food, enzymes, or waste
Definition
vacuoles
Term
found only in plant cells
i'm green as can be
i make food for the plant
using the sun's energy
Definition
chloroplasts
Term
since i contain many enzymes
i can digest an injured cell
and can break down a large molecule
into a smaller one as well
