Organelle Functions (2024)

a large, central membrane-bound organelle which 

contains DNA

• Nucleus

• Mitochondria

• Golgi Apparatus

• Ribosome

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

NGSS.MS-LS3-1

A porous membrane that

encases the nucleus. The

 “nuclear pores” allow

certain substances to pass

into and out of the nucleus.

• Nucleus

• Nuclear envelope

• Golgi Apparatus

• Ribosome

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

A structure contained 

within the nucleus made of RNA and proteins

• Nucleolus

• Endoplasmic Reticulum

• Golgi Body

• Nuclear Envelope

Tags

NGSS.MS-LS1-2

A tunnel-like  network  of membranes. Its connected to the nucleus and branching out into the cytoplasm of all eukaryotic cells

• Endoplasmic Reticulum

• Nucleolus

• Ribosome

• Vacuole

Helps make lipids and stores them for cellular use. Does not have ribsomes on it

• Smooth E.R.

• Rough E.R.

• Mitochondria

• Cytoskeleton

Primarily responsible for the transportation of proteins - which are created on the ribosomes it contains

• Smooth E.R.

• Rough E.R.

• Mitochondria

• Cytoskeleton

A membrane-bound organelle, which  processes and  packages proteins

• Golgi apparatus

• Endoplasmic Reticulum

• Mitochondria

• Vesicle

Acts like a post office by packaging proteins in vesicles and delivering them to other parts of the cell.

• Golgi body

• Endoplasmic Reticulum

• Cytoskeleton

• Nucleus

Small membrane-bound sacs. Transport various items into and out of the cell.

• Vesicle

• Vacuole

• Golgi body

• Mitochondria

A unique,  double  membrane-bound  organelle, which contains its  own DNA. Generates A.T.P. (cellular energy)

• Vesicle

• Vacuole

• Golgi body

• Mitochondria
