Organelles in the Cytoplasm: Many cell organelles are found in the cytoplasm.
The Cytoplasm and Organelles
Mitochondria are known as the “powerhouses” of the cell because they convert energy in food molecules to energy the cell can use to carry out its functions.

Chloroplasts Have you noticed the many large green structures floating in the cytoplasm? Only the cells of plants and some other organisms have these green organelles called chloroplasts. Chloroplasts capture energy from sunlight and use it to produce food for the cell. Chloroplasts capture energy from sunlight and use it to produce food for the cell. Chloroplasts make leaves green.
Vacuoles: Vacuoles are the storage areas of cells. Most plant cells have one large vacuole. Some animal cells do not have vacuoles; others do. Vacuoles store food and other materials needed by the cell. Vacuoles can also store waste products.
