Q

four basic functions of eukaryotic cell organelles

A
  1. genetic control of cell (nucleus, ribosomes)
  2. manufacture, distribution and breakdown of molecules (ER, GA, vacuoles)
  3. energy processing (mitochondria, chloroplasts)
  4. structural support, movement and communication between cells (cell surface membrane, cell wall)

Q

golgi apparatus/golgi body functions

A

1) chemically modify substances from the ER
2) stores and packages the substances in vesicles for secretion out of the cell or to other organelles in the cell
