Organelles

=Organelles:= The definition of an organelle is litterally "little organs"! inside organelles is a nucleus, within the nucleus are many other things which you will learn about now! The nucleus contains nearly all the cells DNA and with it the coded instructions for making proteins and other important molecules. All proteins are assembled on ribosomes.The endoplasmic reticulum is the site where lipid components of the cell membrane are assembled, along with proteins and other materials that are exported from the cell.The function of the Golgi Appareatus is to modify, sort, and package proteinsand other materials from the endoplasmic reticulum for storage in the cell or secretion outside the cell. Last the Mitocondria are organelles that convert the chemical energy stored food into components that are more convenient for the cells to use.
