Study Notes
Cellular Organelles and Their Functions
- Mitochondria are responsible for producing ATP (adenosine triphosphate) through aerobic respiration, generating energy for the cell.
Cellular Organelles and Their Functions
- Nucleus contains DNA organized into chromosomes, storing genetic information.
Cellular Organelles and Their Functions
- Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER) is responsible for protein synthesis, where ribosomes attached to its surface translate messenger RNA (mRNA) into polypeptide chains.
Cellular Organelles and Their Functions
- Lysosomes are involved in cellular digestion and recycling, containing digestive enzymes that break down and recycle cellular waste, foreign substances, and damaged cell components.
