Cell Biology Organelle Functions Quiz

Cellular Organelles

• Mitochondria: Generate energy for the cell through cellular respiration, converting glucose into ATP (adenosine triphosphate), powering the cell's activities.
• Detoxification: The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is responsible for detoxifying harmful substances in the cell, with the help of enzymes that break down toxins.
• Golgi Apparatus: The primary function of the Golgi apparatus is to process and modify proteins and lipids synthesized by the ER, and package them into vesicles for transport to other parts of the cell or for secretion outside the cell.

Test your knowledge of cell biology with this quiz on the functions of organelles such as mitochondria, smooth endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi apparatus. Explore the roles of these important cell structures in energy production, detoxification, and protein processing.
