Cell Wall
Organelle
Function/Location
Fun Facts
Cell Wall
*Only on the
outside of
plant cells
*Makes plant
cells rigid and
protects
*Need it
cause they
get stepped
on and
don’t move
to get away
them
Cell Membrane
Organelle
Cell
Membrane
Function/Location
*Inside cell wall
in plant cells
*Around the
outside of
animal cells
*Lets things in
and out of the
cell through
pores (tiny
holes)
Fun Facts
*Window
screen:
Lets air in
and keeps
bugs out
Nucleus
Organelle
Nucleus
Function/Location
*In the center of
plant and animal
cells
*Contains DNA
which has genes
that instruct the
cell to make
chemical structures
that do things in
the cell.
Fun Facts
*Cookbook
(gives
instructions to
make food)
*Manual (gives
instructions to
put something
together.
Nuclear Membrane
Organelle
Nuclear
Membrane
Function/Location
*Surrounds
the nucleus
*Lets things
in and out
of the
nucleus
through
pores
Fun Facts
* Like a
screen that
only lets
some things
in/out
Mitochondria
Organelle
Mitochondria
Function/Location
*In all cells
*Gives energy to
cells by using
food
*More
mitochondria in
muscles or near
the flagella
Fun Facts
*Opposite of
chloroplasts
*Most were
near the
flagella
*Muscle cells
have most
Chloroplast
Organelle
Function/Location
Chloroplast *Only in plant
Fun Facts
*Found
cells
mostly in
*Photosynthesis: green parts
light energy + CO2
of plants
+ H2O  Glucose
some
in
+ O2
the flower
*Using light to
part
make food and
oxygen
Vacuole
Organelle
Vacuole
Function/Location
*Holds water
*Plants
if full =
plants are
happy and
upright
if empty =
plants droop
or wilt
Fun Facts
*Plants have 1
and its big
*Animals have
many & are
small
*Plants need it
large to make
food and cause
they need to
wait for rain!
Cytoplasm
Organelle
Function/Location
Cytoplasm *Holds the
organelles in
the cell
*Makes up
the whole
inside of the
cell
Fun Facts
*Like
Jell-O
with fruit
inside
