FUNCTIONS:
Cell membrane: Regulates the passage of Nucleus: Contains the cell's genetic material,
substances into and out of the cell, providing regulates gene expression, and coordinates
structural support. cellular activities.
Chromatin: Packages DNA into a more compact Microtubules: Provide structural support, serve
structure, assisting in gene regulation and as tracks for intracellular transport, and play a
protection of genetic material. role in cell division and movement.
Mitochondria: Powerhouses of the cell, Lysosome: Contains enzymes that break down
producing ATP through cellular respiration, and waste materials, pathogens, and cellular debris.
involved in various metabolic processes.
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum: Synthesizes
Peroxisome: Breaks down fatty acids and toxic lipids, metabolizes carbohydrates, and detoxifies
substances, as well as involved in the synthesis of drugs and poisons.
certain lipids.
Golgi Apparatus: Modifies, sorts, and packages
Nucleolus: Site of ribosome biogenesis within the proteins and lipids for secretion or delivery to
nucleus. other organelles.
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum: Modifies and Golgi Vesicle: Transport vesicles that carry
packages proteins synthesized by ribosomes proteins and lipids from the Golgi apparatus to
attached to its surface. their final destination.
Ribosomes: Site of protein synthesis in the cell, Cytoplasm: Jelly-like substance where
translating mRNA into proteins. organelles are suspended, metabolic reactions
occur, and cellular structures are supported.
Vacuole: Stores various substances, provides
structural support, and facilitates nutrient uptake
and waste disposal.
Centrosome: Organizes microtubules during cell
division and plays a role in cell shape and
motility.
