1. Stores material within the cell - Vacuole
2. Closely stacked, flattened sacs (plants only) - Chloroplast
3. The sites of protein synthesis - Ribosome
4. Transports materials within the cell - Endoplasmic Reticulum
5. Jelly-like substance in the cell - Cytoplasm
6. Organelle that manages or controls all the cell functions in a eukaryotic cell - Nucleus
7. Contains chlorophyll, a green pigment that traps energy from sunlight and gives plants their green color - Chloroplast
8. Digests excess or worn-out cell parts, food particles and invading viruses or bacteria - Lysosome
9. Small organelles located in the cytoplasm where proteins are made - Ribosome
10. Provides temporary storage of food, enzymes and waste products - Vacuole
11. Firm, protective structure that gives the cell its shape in plants, fungi, most bacteria and some protists - Cell Wall
12. Produces a usable form of energy for the cell - Mitochondrion
13. Packages proteins for transport out of the cell - Golgi Apparatus
14. Produces lipids - Smooth ER
15. Site where ribosomes are made - Nucleolus
16. The membrane surrounding the cell - Plasma Membrane
17. Provides support for the cell - Cytoskeleton
