(Print) Use this randomly generated list as your call list when playing the game. There is no need to say the BINGO column name. Place some kind of mark (like an X, a checkmark, a dot, tally mark, etc) on each cell as you announce it, to keep track. You can also cut out each item, place them in a bag and pull words from the bag.

These cylindrical structures, usually found in pairs, are involved in organizing microtubules during cell division and form part of the centrosome
Centriole
These are specialized channels that traverse the cell walls of plant cells, enabling the direct exchange of molecules and ions between neighboring cells.
Plasmodesmata
Often referred to as the 'powerhouse' of the cell, this organelle is the site of ATP production through oxidative phosphorylation and has a double-membrane structure
Mitochondrion
These intercellular channels allow for the direct transfer of small molecules and ions between adjacent animal cells, facilitating communication and synchronization of cell activities
Gap Junction
Known as the cell's command center, this organelle houses the cell’s genetic material and is encased by a double membrane punctuated by nuclear pores
Nucleus
This organelle contains hydrolytic enzymes that break down biomolecules and cellular debris, playing a key role in intracellular digestion and recycling
Lysosome
These small structures are the sites of protein synthesis. They can be found floating in the cytoplasm or attached to the rough ER.
Composed primarily of actin, these thin, flexible filaments are crucial for cell movement, shape changes, and muscle contraction, and are involved in forming the cell cortex
Microfilament
These small particles can be free in the cytoplasm or bound to the ER, and are the sites of translation, where mRNA is decoded to synthesize proteins.
Ribosome
In plant cells, this large organelle stores nutrients, waste products, and helps maintain turgor pressure, while in animal cells, it often appears as smaller vesicles.
Vacuole
This organelle is essential for photosynthesis in plant cells and contains the pigment chlorophyll, which captures light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose
Chloroplast
Located within the nucleus, this dense structure is responsible for synthesizing ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and assembling ribosomal subunits.
Nucleolus
Tiny, finger-like projections from the surface of epithelial cells that greatly increase surface area for absorption, commonly found in the intestines and kidneys
Microvilli
This organelle, lacking ribosomes on its surface, is involved in lipid biosynthesis and detoxification processes, and is often well-developed in liver cells
Smooth ER
These hollow, tube-like structures made of tubulin are key components of the cytoskeleton, involved in maintaining cell shape and facilitating intracellular transport
Microtubule
Often described as the 'shipping and receiving center' of the cell, this organelle modifies proteins and lipids by adding carbohydrate groups before sorting them for transport
Golgi
This rigid extracellular structure provides support and protection to plant cells, fungi, and some bacteria, and is composed of cellulose in plants
Cell wall
These specialized connections between adjacent animal cells form a continuous seal around the cell’s apical surface, preventing the leakage of extracellular fluid
Tight Junction
This selectively permeable barrier is composed of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins and is crucial for maintaining cellular homeostasis."
Cell membrane
Often called the 'post office' of the cell, this organelle modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids for transport.
Found in plant cells, fungi, and bacteria, this rigid outer layer provides structural support and protection. It lies outside the cell membrane.
Studded with ribosomes, this organelle is the site of protein synthesis and modification, with proteins being folded and assembled into their functional forms.
Rough ER
These cellular structures provide mechanical strength by anchoring the intermediate filaments of adjacent cells, helping to resist tissue stretching and abrasion
Desmosome
The semi-fluid substance within the cell membrane but outside the nucleus, where most cellular activities, including metabolic pathways and organelle functions, occur
Cytoplasm
Found only in plant cells and some algae, this organelle is responsible for photosynthesis and contains the pigment chlorophyll.
The complex of DNA and histone proteins in the nucleus that condenses to form chromosomes during cell division, playing a key role in gene regulation.
Chromatin
This organelle acts as the outer boundary of the cell, controlling what enters and exits. It's made of a lipid bilayer with embedded proteins.
These large protein complexes embedded in the nuclear envelope regulate the passage of proteins, RNA, and other molecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm
Nuclear pore
The 'control center' of the cell, this organelle contains the cell's genetic material (DNA) and is surrounded by a double membrane.
Small, membrane-bound sacs that transport and store materials within the cell or between the cell and its environment, including those involved in secretion and endocytosis
Vesicle
Short, hair-like structures extending from the surface of some eukaryotic cells that aid in locomotion or the movement of fluids across the cell surface.
Cilia
Covered with ribosomes, this organelle is responsible for protein synthesis and processing. It has a rough texture
This organelle contains oxidative enzymes that break down fatty acids and detoxify harmful substances, including hydrogen peroxide, which it converts to water and oxygen
Peroxisome
Long, whip-like structures that extend from the surface of some cells and are used for propulsion, such as in sperm cells and certain bacteria
Flagella
Known as the 'powerhouse' of the cell, this organelle generates energy in the form of ATP through cellular respiration.
The double-membrane structure that surrounds the nucleus, separating it from the cytoplasm and regulating the flow of molecules between the nucleus and the rest of the cell
Nuclear envelope
