Labelling assignment

                                   

1. Nucleolus - Produces ribosomes, made of RNA.
2. Nucleus - Stores genetic information, controls cell division, directs functioning of cell.
3. Ribosome - Site of protein synthesis, reads RNA code, translates into amino acid sequence.
4. Vesicle - Membrane bound sacs that transport materials around and out of cell.
5. Rough Endoplasmic Recticulum - Produces proteins and transports them to Smooth ER.
6. Golgi Body - Modifies proteins and lipids. Stores and packages molecules.
7. Cytoskeleton - Maintains cell shape, helps with transport in cell.
8. Smooth Endoplasmic Recticulum - Packages proteins, synthesizes membrane phospholipids, detoxifies drugs in liver cellls.
9. Mitochondria - Produces ATP, site of cellular respiration.
10. Vacuole - Maintains structure in plant cells. Acts as storage.
11. Cytoplasm - Gel-like substance that contains all the organelles.
12. Lysosome - Acts as garbage disposal, breaks down bacteria entering cell and worn out organelles.
13. Centrioles - Help the cell during mitosis and meiosis.
