This organelles complex functions to compartmentalize the cell, serves as mechanical support, provides site-specific protein synthesis with membrane-bound ribosomes and plays a role in intracellular transport.

CELL #4 Site of glycolysis A membrane-bound ribosome synthesizing protein Site of ribosome synthesis and assembly Where degradative enzymes and hydrolases are stored A small membrane-enclosed transporter vesicle Organizing center for microtubules Site where GPCRs function Site where polymerases function Where most of the glycosylation catalytic events occur Organelle that plays a major regulatory role in apoptosis

Site of protein synthesis Metabolizes fats; synthesizes certain phospholipids Site of ribosome assembly Site of ATP production Short hairlike projections; provide sweeping motion Contains most of the DNA of the cell Site of intracellular digestion; recycles old organelles Site of lipid synthesis Long whiplike structure; aids in cellular movement Controls what materials enter/exit the cell Helps maintain the structure of the cell Separates nuclear content from cytoplasm Surface studded with ribosomes Aids in division of DNA Modifies and packages proteins made at rough ER
