As it turns out:
You scored 50 Industriousness, 54 Centrality, and 34 Causticity!
You're the Chloroplast! Most of the Earth's energy comes from the chloroplast's ability to capture the energy of the sun and fix cabon dioxide for conversion to starch. Like the mitochondria, they have their own DNA and live somewhat independantly from the rest of the cell. In terms of real life, you have it all! You're the person everyone wants or wants to be. Just watch out for being overconfident, as you may end up alone.

The ER
You scored 73 Industriousness, 35 Centrality, and 11 Causticity!
You're the Endoplasmic reticulum! The ER modifies proteins, makes macromolecules, and transfers substances throughout the cell. It has its own membrane, and translation of mRNA happens within it. You tend to have two sides to you - sort of a jekyll and Hyde kind of story. One side of you tends to be rough and tumble, but also very useful. Your other side is less well-defined and slightly more mysterious.

The Peroxisome
You scored 50 Industriousness, 16 Centrality, and 23 Causticity!
You are the peroxisome! The peroxisome is an important organelle in that it detoxifies almost all toxic substances entering the body by oxidizing them into hydrogen peroxide, and then further detoxifies the peroxide into harmless water and oxygen. You are the reason we have any sort of resistance to toxic substances. In real life, you are always working in the background to make sure everthing runs as it should. You tend to be very good at handling situations requiring tact, or fixing potentially volatile situations with your good humour and charm.

Mitochondria
You scored 56 Industriousness, 22 Centrality, and 11 Causticity!
You're a mitochondrion! The mitocondria is a "power plant" of the cell. Nothing could ever get done in the cell without you creating energy. Since both the Citric Acid cycle and Oxidative Phosphorylation happen inside the mitochondria, you are critical to every eukaryotic cell. You are always a hard worker, no matter what you are tasked to. Most of the time, you tend to be working in the background, but that often suits you just fine. You get along with almost everyone, and aren't these the most important things?

The Nucleus
You scored 40 Industriousness, 38 Centrality, and 7 Causticity!
Wow, this is a big one. You're the Nucleus. You are the central storage location for almost all of the cell's genetic material (DNA), and also have a function in regulating reactions in your surrounding cytosol. All of the other organelles surround you, though you don't do much yourself. In terms of real life, you tend to be the centre of all the action in life. Things always come your way - both good and bad. Remember, that's a lot of responsibility, and don't forget about the little people surrounding you! They're the ones supporting your posh lifestyle!
