What is the function of the cell wall?
Supports plant cells

What is the function of the nucleus?
controls the cells acivities by controlling the transcription of DNA. The pores allow substances to move from the nucleus into the cytoplasm.

what is the function of lysosomes?
Contains digestive enzymes. Can be used to digest invading cells or break down worn out components of the cell.

What is the function of a vesicle?
Transports substances in and out of the cell and between organelles.

What is the function of flagellum?
To move cells forward eg. when a sperm cell moves

How are organelles involoved in protein production?
1. proteins made at ribosome. 2.The RER folds and processes new proteins 3. transported to the golgi in vesicles 4. undergo more processing at the golgi
