To solve this problem, we need to match each description of a cell part (on the left) with the correct name of that cell part (on the right). Let’s go step by step.
We’ll look at each row and think about what each cell part does or where it is located.
---
Row 1: “Controls all activities of the cell”
→ This is the
nucleus. It’s like the brain of the cell — it holds DNA and tells the cell what to do.
Row 2: “Found only in plant cells; gives shape and support”
→ That’s the
cell wall. Animal cells don’t have it. Plants need it to stand up straight.
Row 3: “The site of protein synthesis”
→ Proteins are made by
ribosomes. They can be floating or attached to the ER.
Row 4: “Contains enzymes that break down waste materials”
→ That’s the
lysosome. Think of it as the cell’s garbage disposal.
Row 5: “Modifies proteins and packages them for transport”
→ That’s the
Golgi apparatus (or Golgi body). It’s like a post office — labels and ships proteins.
Row 6: “Site where lipids are synthesized”
→ Lipids (fats) are made in the
smooth endoplasmic reticulum (Smooth ER). No ribosomes on it → smooth.
**Row 7: “Has ribosomes on its surface; involved in protein production”
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of function of the organelles worksheet.
