Cell wall - a thick membrane that surrounds a plant cell giving it support and structure. The cell wall also bonds with other cell walls to form the structure of the plant.

• Cell membrane - the thin membrane that surrounds the cell, but is inside the cell wall. The cell membrane allows some substances to pass into the cell and blocks others.

• Chloroplast – (contains chlorophyll) energy from the sun is turned into food through the process of photosynthesis.

• Golgi body - (also called the golgi apparatus or golgi complex) The golgi body packages proteins and carbohydrates into membrane-bound vesicles for "export" from the cell.

• Mitochondrion – (powerhouse) converts the energy stored in glucose into useable energy for the cell.

• Nuclear membrane - the membrane that surrounds the nucleus which controls what comes in and out.

Page 8: Plant cells

• Nucleus - The nucleus controls many of the functions of the cell and contains DNA.

• Ribosome - sites where proteins are made.

Page 10: Plant cells

• Rough endoplasmic reticulum - Rough ER is covered with ribosomes that give it a rough appearance. Rough ER transport materials through the cell and produces proteins.

Page 11: Plant cells

• Smooth endoplasmic reticulum - Smooth ER transport materials through the cell.

• Vacuole - a large, membrane-bound space within a plant cell that is filled with fluid. Most plant cells have a single vacuole that takes up much of the cell. It helps maintain the shape of the cell.
