Document Summary
Separates intracellular from extracellular and plays a dynamic role in cellular activity. They bind messenger mrna and transfer rna to synthesize polypeptides and proteins. Involves in some protein production, protein folding, and quality control and dispatch. Associated with the production and metabolism of fats and steroid hormones. It is another packaging organelle like the endoplasmic reticulum. Biochemical processes and respiration and energy production occur. Contains enzymes to break down complex molecules of food. The breakdown of very long chain fatty acids through beta-oxidation. Works with microtubules to form the structure that allows a cell to hold its shape, move itself, and move organelles. Play a structural role by providing mechanical strength to cells and tissues. Involved in nucleic and cell division, organization of intracellular structure, and intracellular transport, and cilia and agellar motility. Helps control eating, movement, and reproduction; the brain of the cell. The phospholipid bilayer membrane, which surrounds the genetic material and nucleolus.
