biology unit 1 and 2

function of the nucleus

protects and stores dna

function of the nucleolus

synthesis and assembly of ribosomes

function of the rough er

packages and transports proteins for secretion

function of the smooth er

metabolic processes (synthesis, hydrolysis)

function of the ribosomes

protein synthesis

function of the golgi

modify and packaging of materials for transport

function of the vesicle

moves molecules between organelles and outside of the cell

function of the lysosome

intracellular digestion, recycle cell materials, and apoptosis

function of mitochondria

breaks down nutrients to make atp

function of the cell membrane

regulates transport and protection

function of the cell wall

provides structural support and protection

function of vacuoles

acts as a storage compartment

what are cytoplasmic ribosomes

float in the cytoplasm and make proteins that stay in the cell

what are rough er ribosomes

attached to the rough er and make proteins that are exported

what is the path of protein synthesis

nucleus, ribosome, rough er, golgi, vesicle, cell membrane
