| Nucleus | -Large round structure in middle of the cell -Holds DNA -In charge of cell reproduction |
| Nucleolus | -In the Nucleus -Reproduces ribosomes |
| Ribosomes | -Smallest dots in the cell -Synthesize proteins |
| Rough ER | -Transports proteins through vesicles |
| Smooth ER | - Plays role in detoxification -Lipid synthesis |
| Golgi Apparatus | -Receives, Process, and sends lipids and proteins |
