  • Nucleoulus #to# sysnthesise ribosomes.

  • Ribosomes #to# synthesize proteins.

  • Rough Endoplasmic reticulum #to# having ribosomes on it's surface it's mainly involved in protein synthesis.

  • Smooth Endoplasmic reticulum #to# mainly involved in metabolism. Also play role in transport of material within the cell.
    For example: proteins synthesized on RER are transported to Golgi apparatus via SER.

  • Golgi Apparatus #to# gives final touch to cell secretions (proteins) before they are ready to get out of the cell.

  • Lysosomes #to# major role in phagocytosis i.e engulf #&# breakdown any foreign particles that enters the cell.

  • Vacuoles #to# vacuoles are predominantly involved in storage in both animal #&# plant cell. But in plant cell, a larger central vacuole is also a major contributor to the turgor that is salient for maintaining rigidity in younger parts of plant.

  • Peroxisomes #to# specifically involved in formation and decomposition of hydrogen peroxide#(H_2O_2)#.

  • Mitochondria #to# manufacture and supply energy#(ATP)# needed for all cellular activities.

  • Choloroplast #to# present in plants only. Help plants to photosynthesize their own food.

Hope it helps!
