Produces rRNA and components of the ribosomes Most prominent organelle surrounded by the nuclear envelope genetic material is found here Synthesizes proteins Contains ribosomes synthesizes assembles and modifies proteins that will be exported from the cell No ribosomes involved in fatty acid lipid metabolism Processes sorts modifies packages proteins and synthesizes lysosomes Sacks of digestive enzymes that break down molecules bacteria and organelles Primary storage site for water food salt pigment waste in plant cells Usually only one per cell Small numerous in animal cells Involved in storage Plant cell vacuoles Lysosomes Smooth endoplasmic reticulum Nucleolus Golgi apparatus Animal cell vacuoles Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum halous Ribosomes
