Figure out who I am based on the clue/hint/picture. Hint I am the gatekeeper Energy factory The boss/brain of the cell Thin and wavy network used for transportation I package and sort proteins I make proteins I dissolve and break down damaged/dead organelles I make food for the plant cells Guess which organelle am I Reading Comprehension: answer the questions below after you have finished reading this article. Organelles are small structures within cells that perform dedicated functions. As the name implies, you can think of organelles as small organs. There are a dozen different types of organelles commonly found in eukaryotic cells It is important to know the basic facts about the following organelles. Nucleus This is where the DNA is kept and RNA is transcribed. The nucleus controls all activities inside the cell. Ribosomes Ribosomes are the sites of protein synthesis , where RNA is translated into protein. Protein synthesis is extremely important to cells, and so large numbers of ribosomes are found throughout cells (often numbering in the hundreds or thousands). Ribosomes exist floating freely in the cytoplasm, and also bound to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). ER bound to ribosomes is called rough ER because the ribosomes appear as black dots on the ER in electron microscope photos, giving the ER a rough texture. These organelles are quite small, made up of 50 proteins and several long RNAs intricately bound together. Ribosomes have no membrane. Ribosomes disassemble into two subunits when not actively synthesizing protein. Mitochondria Mitochondria are the sites of aerobic respiration, and generally are the major energy production center in the cell. Chloroplasts These organelles are the site of photosynthesis in plants and other photosynthesizing organisms. They also have a double membrane. There is a more complete description of the chloroplast here, in the chapter on photosynthesis. Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) The ER is the transport network for molecules targeted for certain modifications and specific final destinations, as opposed to molecules that are destined to float freely in the cytoplasm. There are two types of ER, rough and smooth. Rough ER has ribosomes attached to it, and smooth ER does not. Golgi apparatus This organelle modifies molecules and packages them into small membrane bound sacs called vesicles. These sacs can be targetted at various locations in the cell and even to its exterior. Lysosome This organelle digests waste materials and food within the cell, breaking down molecules into their base components with strong digestive enzymes . Questions 1. Which organelle from the above list is the most important organelle inside the cell? Justify your answer. _______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________
