Study Notes

Cellular Organelles

Specialized structures within cells that carry out specific functions.
Essential for maintaining cellular processes including metabolism, energy production, and protein synthesis.

Functions of Organelles

Metabolism: Involves chemical reactions that convert food to energy and building blocks for cell components.
Energy Production: Organelles like mitochondria generate ATP, the energy currency of the cell.
Protein Synthesis: Ribosomes are responsible for assembling amino acids into proteins based on genetic instructions.

Structure-Function Relationship

Each organelle has a unique structure optimized for its specific role.
For example, mitochondria have a double membrane structure that enhances their ability to produce energy.
