Explanation:

Cell Membrane: Controls what enters and leaves the cell.
Cell Wall: Provides support and protection, mainly in plant cells.
Cytoplasm: Holds organelles and is site of many chemical reactions.
Mitochondria: Produces energy (ATP) through cellular respiration.
Lysosomes: Contain enzymes to break down waste materials.
Vacuoles: Store water, nutrients, and waste; large in plant cells.
Golgi Bodies: Modify, sort, and package proteins and lipids.
Chloroplasts: Site of photosynthesis in plant cells.
Endoplasmic Reticulum: Involved in protein and lipid synthesis; rough ER has ribosomes, smooth ER does not.
Ribosomes: Site of protein synthesis.
Nucleus: Controls cell activities, contains DNA.
Nucleolus: Produces ribosomal RNA and assembles ribosomes.
Chromatin: DNA - protein complex that condenses to form chromosomes during cell division.

Answer:

Cell Membrane: Controls substance movement.
Cell Wall: Offers support and protection.
Cytoplasm: Holds organelles, reaction site.
Mitochondria: Energy - producing organelle.
Lysosomes: Waste - breaking organelles.
Vacuoles: Storage organelles.
Golgi Bodies: Protein/lipid modifier and packager.
Chloroplasts: Photosynthesis site.
Endoplasmic Reticulum: Protein/lipid synthesis site.
Ribosomes: Protein synthesis site.
Nucleus: Cell activity controller.
Nucleolus: Ribosome - related organelle.
Chromatin: DNA - protein complex for chromosomes.
