The mitochondria is also referenced to as the 'power house' as its main function is to take in nutrients, break them down, and produces energy for the cell in the form of Adenosine Tri Phosphate (ATP). As the cell is bounded by a double membrane it means its surface area is increased thus increasing the amount of energy that can be made.

The cell membrane controls how substances can move in and out of the cell and is responsible for many other properties of the cell as well. The cell membrane is made up of Compounds called proteins and phospholipids make up most of the cell membrane

Ribosome's make proteins from amino acid and are key in the process of protein synthesis. They can be found in various places in a cell such as floating around in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

The Golgi apparatus modifies proteins and other molecules ready either for use within the cell or is packaged for the transportation from the ER.

The ER can be (S)mooth or (R)ough and is a system of interconnected membranes. The Ribosome's attach there selves to the RER ready for transportation to other parts of the cell. The SER has a wide range of functions such as carbohydrate synthesis its main overall function is to transport products to various destinations within the cell.

The Nucleus is commonly nicknamed the brain as it controls activities in the cell, like the mitochondria it is bounded by a double membrane and this membrane separates the nucleus from the cytoplasm the nucleus also contain chromosomes and the nucleolus , in the nucleolus mRNA is produced.

Lysosome's have various roles within a cell for one they are referred to as the "garbage disposal unit" as they are capable of breaking down various substances such as protein, acids, and fats. In addition, in many organisms, Lysosome's are involved in programmed cell death.

The cytoplasm consists of all of the contents outside of the nucleus and enclosed within the cell membrane. The...
