Can you label and color these important parts of the animal cell?

NUCLEUS  control center for cell (cell growth, cell metabolism, cell reproduction)

NUCLEOLUS  synthesizes  rRNA

RIBOSOMES  the site of protein building, this is where translation takes place (mRNA in language of nucleic acids is translated into the language of amino acids)

RER (Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum) synthesizes proteins for secretion, membrane proteins, and organelle proteins.

SER (Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum) synthesizes lipids

MITOCHONDRIA cellular respiration, ATP is made here 

GOLGI BODIES modifies, stores, sorts & secretes the cells chemical products

LYSOSOMES responsible for intracellular digestion

CYTOPLASM the semi-fluid interior part of the cell

VACUOLE  “bubble” for storage

CENTRIOLES help with cell division
