Ribosomes These small structures funtion as factories to produce proteins. Ribosomes may be attached to the endoplasmic reticulum, or they may float in the cytoplasm.
Golgi Body The golgi body recieves materials from the endoplasmic reticulum and send them to other parts of the cell. they also realese materials outside the cell.
