Let’s go step by step to label the animal cell correctly.

We are given these vocabulary words:
- Nucleus
- Cell Membrane
- Mitochondria
- Vacuole
- Golgi Apparatus
- Cytoplasm

Now, let’s look at each part of the cell diagram and match it with the correct word.

1. The outermost layer that surrounds the whole cell → This is the Cell Membrane. It holds everything inside and controls what goes in and out.

2. The big pink circle in the middle → That’s the Nucleus. It’s like the brain of the cell — it tells the cell what to do.

3. The jelly-like stuff filling the space around the nucleus → That’s the Cytoplasm. Everything floats in this.

4. The small oval shapes with wavy lines inside (there are a few of them) → Those are Mitochondria. They make energy for the cell.

5. The stacked curved lines near the nucleus → That’s the Golgi Apparatus. It packages and ships things made in the cell.

6. The empty-looking sacs or bubbles (usually clear or light-colored) → Those are Vacuoles. In animal cells, they’re smaller than in plant cells, but still there — they store water, food, or waste.

Now, let’s assign each label box based on where the arrows point:

Top arrow pointing to the outer edge → Cell Membrane

Right arrow pointing to the big pink center → Nucleus

Bottom right arrow pointing to one of the brown ovals with lines → Mitochondria

Bottom left arrow pointing to a clear bubble → Vacuole

Left middle arrow pointing to the stacked curves → Golgi Apparatus

Left top arrow pointing to the yellowish background area → Cytoplasm

All parts matched!

Final Answer:
Top box: Cell Membrane
Right box: Nucleus
Bottom right box: Mitochondria
Bottom left box: Vacuole
Left middle box: Golgi Apparatus
Left top box: Cytoplasm
