Lysosome- Lysosomes patrol the cytoplasm cleaning up.

They contain special protein that are


used to break down large molecules into smaller molecules. These smaller molecules can be
used as building blocks to fix other large molecules.

Ribosomes- Proteins are put together on ribosomes using information from the nucleus and
proteins from the cytoplasm. These proteins are needed for cell growth, repair, and
reproduction.

Golgi Apparatus- proteins are stored inside the Golgi Apparatus. These proteins are packaged
to form vesicles. Vesicles carry proteins to the surface of the cell, where they are released to the
outside.

Endoplasmic reticulum- The endoplasmic reticulum is a series of folded membrane used to


carry material throughout the cytoplasm. Rough endoplasmic reticulum has ribosomes attached
to it
