Functions:
Lysosome – contain digestive enzymes, they digest excess or worn out organelles, food particles, and
engulfed viruses or bacteria
Rough ER - his organelle is primarily concerned with the synthesis, folding and modification of proteins,
especially those that need to be delivered to different organelles within the cell, or secreted from the
cell. The rough ER is also involved in the response of the cell to unfolded proteins and plays a role in the
induction of apoptosis, due to its close interaction with mitochondria.
Nucleus - to control gene expression and mediate the replication of DNA during the cell cycle
Golgi apparatus - to process and bundle macromolecules like proteins and lipids as they are synthesized
within the cell
Vacuole - to provide the plant with support or rigidity, a storage area for nutrients and waste matter and
can decompose complex molecules
Cell wall - to give the cell strength and structure, and to filter molecules that pass in and out of the cell.
Chloroplast - to convert light energy of the Sun into sugars that can be used by cells
