 * Organelle (Name) || Location (Animal/Plant) || Function (What does it do) || Illustration (Draw a picture of what it looks like) ||
 * **Nucleus** || Animal/Plant || The nucleus is the control center of the cell. It is the largest organelle in the cell and it contains the DNA of the cell. The DNA of all cells is made up of chromosomes. || [[image:nucleus2.gif]] ||
 * **Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)** || Animal/Plant || It is a network of membranes throughout the cytoplasm of the cell. There are two types of ER. || [[image:ER-cell.gif width="135" height="203"]] ||
 * **Ribosomes** || Animal/Plant || Organelles that help in the synthesis of proteins. Ribosomes are made up of two parts, called subunits. || [[image:cell-ribosomes.gif width="135" height="87"]] ||
 * **Mitochondria** || Animal/Plant || This is the cell’s powerhouse. This organelle packages the energy of the food into ATP molecules. || [[image:cell-mitochondria.gif width="75" height="92"]] ||
 * **Chloroplast** || Plant || The cell organelle in which photosynthesis takes place. In this organelle the light energy of the sun is converted into chemical energy. || [[image:chloroplast.gif width="120" height="76"]] ||
 * Organelle (Name) || Location (Animal/Plant) || Function (What does it do) || Illustration (Draw a picture of what it looks like) ||
 * **Chlorophylls** || Plant || Responsible for trapping the light energy from the sun. || [[image:chloroplast.gif width="120" height="76"]] ||
 * **Vacuole** || Animal/Plant || Plant cells have what looks like a very large empty space in the middle. This space is called the vacuole. || [[image:vacuole.gif width="135" height="118"]] ||
 * **Cytoplasm** || Animal/Plant || A term for all the contents of a cell other than the nucleus. Even though the cartoon drawings do not look like it, the cytoplasm contains mostly water. || [[image:cytoplasm.gif width="120" height="120"]] ||
 * **Cell wall** || Animal/Plant || In addition to cell membranes, plants have cell walls. Cell walls provide protection and support for plants. || [[image:cellwall.gif width="120" height="242"]] ||
