Endoplasmic Reticulum
15
Endoplasmic Reticulum (cont’d.)
• Rough ER
– For protein synthesis
– Attached ribosomes
• Smooth ER
– Fat transport
– Sex hormone synthesis
16
Endoplasmic Reticulum (cont’d.)
• Golgi apparatus
– Collection of flat saclike cisternae
– Concentration and collection of cellular
compounds
– Storage warehouses of the cell
– Carbohydrate synthesis site

Ribosomes
18
Ribosomes (cont’d.)
• Protein functions
– Structure, enzymes or catalysts, immune
response
• DNA contains the code for a particular
protein
– DNA found in nucleus
19
Ribosomes (cont’d.)
• Transcription
– Messenger RNA copies DNA code and leaves
nucleus
• Translation
– Transfer RNA picks up amino acids
– Ribosomes link amino acids together

Plastids of Plant Cells
• Chloroplasts
– Most common plastid
– Photosynthesis: conversion of light into
chemical energy
– Granum
• Made of thylakoids
• Connected by lamella
• Chromoplasts: carotenoid pigments
• Leucoplasts: store food
