| endoplasmic reticulum (ER) | network of winding canals used to store things, materials are made |
| ribosomes | structures that make proteins, smallest organelles |
| golgi body(complex) | in cytoplasm, sacs that store, pack, and transport materials and cytoplasm, package and distribute proteins |
