Stores water and maintains sugar

Convert light energy into stable chemical energy via photosynthesis.

Generate most of the chemical energy needed to power the cell’s biochemical reactions. Carry out cellular respiration: transforms glucose into ATP.

Helps process and package proteins and lipid molecules, especially proteins.

Produce proteins for the rest of the cell to function.

Controls and regulates the activities of the cell.

Facilitating ribosome biogenesis and rRNA synthesis.

Surrounds the plasma membrane and provides strength and protection.

Membrane-bound organelle that contains digestive enzymes. Have enzymes to digest wastes

Involved in the synthesis and storage of lipids including cholesterol and phospholipids. Production and metabolism of fats and steroids.

Structure that helps the cells maintain their shape and internal organization.

Paired barrel-like organelles located in the cytoplasm near the nuclear envelope. Supportive structure for mitosis.

Jellylike mixture of water, sugars, ions, and proteins. Holds organelles.

Made of proteins and RNA that begins the synthesis of proteins.

Sent into other organelles, plasma membrane, outside of cell.
