  • Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis in the cell.
  • The cytoplasm contains various structures such as ribosomes, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, vacuoles, cytoskeleton, and centrioles.
  • Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes that break down waste materials, cellular debris, foreign substances, and recycle components.
  • The nucleus contains the cell's DNA and regulates cell activity by controlling gene expression and protein synthesis.
  • The nucleus is the control center of the cell, containing genetic material (DNA) that determines an organism's characteristics.
  • Mitochondria converts the energy from food into ATP, which is the energy currency of cells.
  • The endoplasmic reticulum is responsible for the synthesis, folding, modification, and transport of proteins and lipids within the cell.
  • The Golgi apparatus processes, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids for transport to their final destinations within the cell or for secretion.
  • The nucleus is surrounded by a double membrane called the nuclear envelope, which contains pores that allow substances to enter or exit the nucleus.
  • Chromatin - The material inside the nucleus made up of DNA and proteins.
  • Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) is involved in lipid metabolism and protein production.
  • Vacuoles store water, nutrients, pigments, and wastes within cells.
  • Golgi Apparatus modifies proteins and packages them into vesicles.
  • Vacuoles store water, nutrients, pigments, and other substances within cells.
  • Chromatin - The substance made up of DNA and proteins found inside the nucleus.
  • Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER): A network of membranes involved in protein synthesis, lipid production, detoxification, and calcium storage.
  • Cell membrane - Also known as plasma membrane or plasmalemma, it separates the contents of the cell from its surroundings and controls what enters and exits the cell.
  • Golgi Apparatus modifies, packages, and transports newly formed proteins and lipids throughout the cell or outside the cell through exocytosis.
  • Ribosomes are small structures found inside the cytoplasm where protein synthesis occurs.
  • Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes that break down waste materials and damaged organelles within the cell.
  • Lysosomes are small sac-like structures containing digestive enzymes used for breaking down waste materials.
  • The Golgi apparatus processes and sorts molecules produced by the endoplasmic reticulum.
  • Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes that break down waste materials and damaged organelles.
  • Nucleus is the control center of the cell where genetic information is stored and processed.
  • Nucleus contains genetic material (DNA) and regulates various processes such as growth, metabolism, and reproduction.
  • Cytoplasm is the gel-like material surrounding the nucleus and containing various organelles.
  • Endoplasmic Reticulum is involved in the production and modification of proteins and lipids.
  • Mitochondria generate energy through cellular respiration, producing ATP (adenosine triphosphate).
  • Cell membrane controls what enters and exits the cell, regulating its internal environment.
