Terms to use:
Cell membrane, Cytoplasm, Ribosomes, Golgi body, Mitochondria, Nucleus
#### a. Organelle that releases energy for the cell. The power house of the cell.
✔ Mitochondria
👉 *Explanation:* Mitochondria are known as the "powerhouse" because they produce ATP (energy) through cellular respiration.
#### b. Structure that forms a boundary of cell. Allows things to enter or leave the cell.
✔ Cell membrane
👉 *Explanation:* The cell membrane is semi-permeable and controls what enters and exits the cell.
#### c. Gel-like material inside the cell membrane.
✔ Cytoplasm
👉 *Explanation:* The cytoplasm is the jelly-like substance where organelles are suspended.
#### d. Where proteins are made.
✔ Ribosomes
👉 *Explanation:* Ribosomes are the sites of protein synthesis (translation).
#### e. A folded membrane that moves material in cells. The UPS of a cell.
✔ Golgi body
👉 *Explanation:* The Golgi apparatus modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids for transport—like a cellular post office or "United Parcel Service" (UPS).
#### f. Structure that directs the cell’s activities.
✔ Nucleus
👉 *Explanation:* The nucleus contains DNA and controls gene expression and cell activities.

#### The structures within the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells are ____________.
✔ a. Organelles
👉 *Explanation:* Eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles (like mitochondria, nucleus, etc.) in their cytoplasm.
#### Cell wastes are digested in organelles called ____________.
✔ b. lysosomes
👉 *Explanation:* Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes that break down waste materials and cellular debris.
#### Water, food, and waste products are stored in the cell’s ____________.
✔ a. vacuoles
👉 *Explanation:* Vacuoles store substances like water, nutrients, and waste. In plant cells, the central vacuole is large and helps maintain turgor pressure.
#### Plant cells differ from animal cells because plant cells have ____________.
✔ c. cell walls
👉 *Explanation:* Plant cells have a rigid cell wall made of cellulose, which provides structural support. Animal cells do not have this.

We are given a diagram of a eukaryotic cell (likely an animal cell since it has a centrosome but no cell wall). We need to label the blank boxes based on the visible structures.
Let’s identify each:
- Top box (pointing to outer edge): → Cell membrane
👉 It surrounds the entire cell.
- Right side box (pointing to oval structure near nucleus): → Mitochondrion
👉 These are the rod-shaped organelles with double membranes — "powerhouses."
- Left side box (pointing to pink circle inside nucleus): → Nucleus
👉 The large central structure containing the nucleolus.
- Below nucleus (pointing to small brown structure): → Ribosome
👉 Small dots attached to the rough ER or free in cytoplasm.
- Bottom box (pointing to red oval): → Mitochondrion
👉 Another mitochondrion (same as above). There are multiple.
Wait — let's recheck the positions carefully:
Looking at the diagram:
1. Top arrow pointing to outer edge: → Cell membrane ✔
2. Right arrow pointing to oval structure near center (but not nucleus): → Mitochondrion ✔
*(Note: There are several mitochondria shown; one is clearly pointed to)*
3. Left arrow pointing to the large pink area (contains nucleolus): → Nucleus ✔
4. Arrow below nucleus pointing to small brown structure: → Ribosome? But wait — it looks like a lysosome or vacuole?
Actually, looking closely:
- The green circles are lysosomes.
- The brown oval next to the nucleus — it might be a mitochondrion, but there's already one labeled.
Wait — check again.
Looking at the diagram:
- The centrosome is labeled.
- Rough ER, Smooth ER, Ribosomes, Golgi body, Lysosome, Vacuole, Nucleolus are labeled.
- The unlabeled parts:
- Top: Cell membrane
- Right: Mitochondrion (one of the red ovals)
- Left: Nucleus (the big pink circle)
- Below nucleus: Ribosome? But the shape looks like a lysosome or vacuole?
Wait — the box below nucleus points to a small green dot — that's likely a lysosome.
But the bottom box points to a red oval — that’s a mitochondrion.
So let's list the boxes:
From top to bottom:
1. Top box (outer edge): → Cell membrane
2. Right box (near centrosome, red oval): → Mitochondrion
3. Left box (large pink circle): → Nucleus
4. Box below nucleus (small green dot): → Lysosome
5. Bottom box (red oval): → Mitochondrion
But we have two red ovals labeled — so maybe both are mitochondria.
Wait — actually, the structure labeled "vacuole" is a large one, but the other small green dots are lysosomes.
So:
- The box pointing to the small green dot (left of nucleus) → Lysosome
- The bottom box pointing to red oval → Mitochondrion
But wait — the nucleus is already labeled with "nucleolus", so the large pink circle is the nucleus.
Let’s go box by box:
- Top box: Points to outer boundary → Cell membrane ✔
- Right box: Points to oval structure near centrosome → Mitochondrion ✔
- Left box: Points to pink area with nucleolus → Nucleus ✔
- Box below nucleus: Points to small green dot → Lysosome ✔
- Bottom box: Points to red oval → Mitochondrion ✔
Yes! So all labels are:
1. Cell membrane
2. Mitochondrion
3. Nucleus
4. Lysosome
5. Mitochondrion
But note: "Mitochondrion" appears twice — that's fine, as there are multiple mitochondria.

5. Mitochondrion
> 🔍 Tip: Always look at the shape and location. Mitochondria are bean-shaped with folds; lysosomes are small green dots; nucleus is large and central; cell membrane is the outer boundary.

👉 Another mitochondrion (same as above). There are multiple.
Wait — let's recheck the positions carefully:
Looking at the diagram:
1. Top arrow pointing to outer edge: → Cell membrane ✔
2. Right arrow pointing to oval structure near center (but not nucleus): → Mitochondrion ✔
*(Note: There are several mitochondria shown; one is clearly pointed to)*
3. Left arrow pointing to the large pink area (contains nucleolus): → Nucleus ✔
4. Arrow below nucleus pointing to small brown structure: → Ribosome? But wait — it looks like a lysosome or vacuole?

Wait — check again.

Wait — the box below nucleus points to a small green dot — that's likely a lysosome.
But the bottom box points to a red oval — that’s a mitochondrion.
So let's list the boxes:
From top to bottom:
1. Top box (outer edge): → Cell membrane
2. Right box (near centrosome, red oval): → Mitochondrion
3. Left box (large pink circle): → Nucleus
4. Box below nucleus (small green dot): → Lysosome
5. Bottom box (red oval): → Mitochondrion
But we have two red ovals labeled — so maybe both are mitochondria.
Wait — actually, the structure labeled "vacuole" is a large one, but the other small green dots are lysosomes.
So:
- The box pointing to the small green dot (left of nucleus) → Lysosome
- The bottom box pointing to red oval → Mitochondrion
But wait — the nucleus is already labeled with "nucleolus", so the large pink circle is the nucleus.
Let’s go box by box:

- Right box: Points to oval structure near centrosome → Mitochondrion ✔
- Left box: Points to pink area with nucleolus → Nucleus ✔
- Box below nucleus: Points to small green dot → Lysosome ✔
- Bottom box: Points to red oval → Mitochondrion ✔
Yes! So all labels are:
1. Cell membrane
2. Mitochondrion
3. Nucleus
4. Lysosome
5. Mitochondrion
But note: "Mitochondrion" appears twice — that's fine, as there are multiple mitochondria.
