Organelles are the functional subunits of the cell. Each organelle has a specific function which makes it easier to master the names, structure, and function of each component. In the following table, indicate the functions associated with each structure.
Organelles :
(a) Nucleus
(b) Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
(c) Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
(d) Golgi body
(e) Lysosomes
(g) Chloroplast
(f) Mitochondrion
(h) Peroxisomes
