flaggellum- locomotion organelle present in some animal cells.
centrosome- region where the cell's microtubules are initiated; in animal cell, contains a pair of centrioles.
chromatin- material consisting of DNA and proteins.
nucleolus- nonmembanous organelle involved in production of ribosomes.
lysosome- digestive organelle.
plasma membrane- membrane enclosing the cell.
ribosome- nonmembranous organelles that make proteins.
cytoskeleton- holds the cell's shape. it is made of protein
mitochondrion- organelle where cellular respiration occurs and most ATP is generated.
chloroplast- photosynthetic organelle that converts energy of sunlight to chemical energy.
cell wall- holds cell shape and protects the cell.
golgi apparatus- organelle active in synthesis, sorting, and secretion of cell products.
endoplasmic reticulum- network of membranous sacs and tubes; active in membranous synthesis and other synthetic and metabolic processes.
tonoplast- membrane enclosing the central vacuole.
central vacuole- prominent organelle in older plant cells; functions include breakdown of waste, storage and enlargement of vacuole.

* not in animal cells: chloroplasts, central vacuole and tonoplast, cell wall and plasmodesmata.
* not in plant cells: lysosomes,centrioles, and flagella.
