• Cell membrane

Receives proteins and other newly formed materials from the ER, packages them and distributes them to other parts of the cell or outside the cell

• Endoplasmic Reticulum
• Mitochondria

Only Found in Plants, this organelle has a rigid layer that surrounds cells of plants. Helps protect and support the cell  

• Cell Wall
