10. Nucleus – controls cell’s functions, hold genetic material
Cytoplasm – “cell gel” – watery gel-like substance fills cell and holds other organelles in place
Mitochondria – makes energy for cell by breaking down sugars to release their energy
Cell wall - protects/gives structure/plant,bacteria&fungi
