Organelle Biochemical Process Importance

Golgi Apparatus
Smooth Endoplasmic
Reticulum
Covalent modification and
distribution of synthesized
proteins
Lipid synthesis
The golgi apparatus is in charge of
transporting, altering, and packaging
proteins and lipids into vesicles so that
they can be delivered to specific
locations. A variety of chemical
changes may occur as secretory
proteins pass through the golgi
apparatus
Has enzymes that help build molecules;
carbohydrates, lipids.

Nucleus Storage of genetic material The nucleus directs and regulates the
cell’s functions (such as development
and metabolism) and houses the genes,
which hold the cell’s genetic
information.
Nucleolus Site for ribosome synthesis A membrane less organelle within the
nucleus that manufactures ribosomes,
the cell’s protein producing structures.
Vesicles Cell-cell communication and Vesicles can assist transfer and recycle
transport materials that an organism requires to
survive.

Ribosomes A major site for protein It has the protein factory of the cell.
synthesis

Cytoplasm Site for mRNA translation The cytoplasm holds the components
of the cell together and protects them
from damage. It is also responsible for
giving the cell its form and storing the
chemicals essential for cellular
functions.
Mitochondria Oxidative phosphorylation Mitochondria, sometimes known as
 “powerhouse of the cell” create the
energy required for the cell’s survival
and operation. Mitochondria use a
series of chemical events to convert
glucose into adenosine triphosphate
(ATP), an energy molecule that is used
to power numerous cellular operations.

The
Cytoskeleton Actomyosin-driven
contractile molecular motors

cytoskeleton,
among all
the
functional
components
of a living
cell,
is termed the
cell's
backbone
since it
gives the cell
its shape and
structure

It serves as mechanical support, anchor
of the organelles and help move
substances.
Lysosome Cellular digestion The lysosomes recycle the cell’s
organic material in a process known as
autophagy.
