CELL ORGANELLES QUIZ 2026 GRADED A+ WITH COMPLETE
SOLUTIONS
organelles -ANSWER-little cell structures that have specific functions and are found in
Eukaryotes
cell membrane -ANSWER-cells security system, surrounds and protects the cell, controls
what enters and exits the cell
cytoplasm -ANSWER-gel-like substance inside the cell, where cell processes (chemical
reactions) occur, 80% water
cell wall -ANSWER-tough structure that surrounds and protects plant cells, gives cells shape,
made of cellulose
nucleus -ANSWER-control center of the cell, contains directions for the entire cell, DNA is
found here, surrounded by a nuclear membrane
cholorplast -ANSWER-green organelle, in plant cells, photosynthesis, captures energy from
the sun to make glucose
mitochondria -ANSWER-cell energy dam, stores and releases cell's energy, "powerhouse"
ribosomes -ANSWER-protein factories, make proteins, some float freely in the cytoplasm
and others are attached to the ER
endoplasmic reticulum -ANSWER-cell's railroad track, moves material around in the cell,
smooth-no ribosomes, rough-has ribosomes
