Study Notes
Cellular Organelles and Their Functions
- Ribosomes: responsible for protein synthesis, reading messenger RNA (mRNA) sequences, and assembling amino acids into polypeptide chains
Cellular Respiration
- Mitochondria: organelle responsible for cellular respiration, generating energy for the cell through the process of cellular respiration, converting glucose into ATP (adenosine triphosphate)
Cell Transport and Packaging
- Golgi apparatus: responsible for processing and modifying proteins and lipids synthesized by the endoplasmic reticulum, packaging them into vesicles for transport to other parts of the cell or for secretion outside the cell
