Matching Pairs 4.6 Functions of the organellesOnline version Functions of the organelles by Jorge Arizpe 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Produces most of the lipids (fats) Its function is the oxidation of sugars (Krebs cycle, beta-oxidation of fatty acids) and obtaining ATP It is responsible for the synthesis of proteins, which constitute the extracellular matrix, the enzymes of lysosomes and cell membranes. Delimits and protects the cell and allows the passage of substances through it In plant cells it serves as storage and helps with homeostasis. Its function consists of using the energy of sunlight for the synthesis of sugars Rigid layer that gives shape to the cell. It has protection and structural functions Involved in cell division in animal cells In charge of synthesizing proteins It modifies proteins and lipids (fats) that have been previously synthesized to send them to where it belongs, outside or inside the cell. Its main function is the biosynthesis of ribosomes and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). They contain enzymes that are used to digest organic materials It contains most of the genetic material of the cell - DNA and regulates the activities of the cell. Its functions are to carry the organelles, it is a storage of substances and supports the cell.
