Cell Organelles

It stores energy

It contains instructions for making proteins

It transports proteins

It breaks down proteins

store waste

sort and package proteins

transport materials throughout the cell

make proteins

Nucleolus: make ribosomes

Nuclear Pores: holes in the nuclear envelope that allow things to enter and exit the membrane

Nuclear Envelope: the double-membrane barrier surrounding the nucleus

Chromatin: where DNA is used in the nucleus

The Golgi apparatus synthesizes proteins and sends them to the endoplasmic reticulum for modification.

The endoplasmic reticulum modifies proteins and sends them to the Golgi apparatus for further processing and transport.

The Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum work independently, with no interaction.

The endoplasmic reticulum stores proteins, and the Golgi apparatus releases them into the cytoplasm.
