Important information |
1. |
Endoplasmic reticulum |
1. protein synthesis 2. steroid secretion |
Two types: a. Rough E.R- ribosome are present on their membrane. b. Smooth E.R- ribosome are absent on their membrane. |
2. |
Ribosome |
Play an important role in protein synthesis. |
Located on rough endoplasmic reticulum. |
3. |
Golgi body |
a. Modification, storage, package and transport of proteins and lipids synthesized by ER b. Secretion of various material like steroids etc. |
Formed from endoplasmic reticulum |
4. |
Lysosome |
Intracellular digestion |
Known as suicide bags |
5. |
Mitochondria |
Produces and stores energy rich molecule |
Powerhouse of the cell |
