Color choices

Animal cell areas can begin with pale yellow cytoplasm and a dark green outer membrane. Color the nucleus lavender with a contrasting pink center, then use green and teal across the folded endoplasmic reticulum. Try orange for the stacked Golgi apparatus and red with purple interiors for the mitochondria. Finish the small circles and dots in varied blues to separate them from nearby structures.

Organelle Color Key

Choose a distinct color for each repeated organelle shape, then create a matching color key on a separate strip of paper.

Printing tips

With about 82 areas to color, Animal Cell Diagram Coloring Page sits at a medium level of detail. Use crayons for the big shapes and switch to pencils for the narrow parts.

Download the PDF and print it on US Letter. For A4, select “Fit to page” in the print dialog; a single test print shows whether your printer keeps the thin outer frame.

This picture is also in the Human Body Coloring Pack, one PDF with 12 pictures and a cover page for printing a set in one go.
