|
|
|
What does a ribosome do? |
Where proteins are made in the cell |
|

Y |
|
|
What does mitochondria do? |
Where most reactions happen for aerobic respiration take place. Respiration transfers energy that the cell needs to work. |
|
|

What does a nucleus do? |
It contains genetic material that controls the activities of the cell. |
|
|
|
What does cytoplasm do? |
It is a gel like substance where most of the chemical reactions happen in the cell. It contains enzymes that control the chemical reactions. |
|
