Name Function Description Cell Membrane The membrane at the boundary of every cell that acts as a selective barrier regulating the cells chemical composition. Cytoplasm The Cytoplasm offers support to the cell and speeds up inter-cellular travel. It allows the cell to take up 3-dimensional space and the cell's many organelles to "float" freely throughout. Mitochondria Where the cell creates most of the energy (ATP), also known as the ?powerhouse? of the cell. Nucleus This is where all the DNA is kept and translated into mRNA. Golgi Apparatus Stores and sends out proteins using vestical transport. Lysosomes Filled with digestive enzymes, Lysosomes function to get rid of waste and break down large macromolecules. Endoplasmic Reticulum
