Cross Sections of Animal and Plant Cells

Semi-permeable

Allows some substances to enter or exit the cell

Jelly-like fluid where organelles are located

Controls many functions of the cell

Membrane surrounding the nucleus

Nuclear membrane

nucleolus

Creates proteins

Can be found floating in the cytoplasm or on Rough ER
