Summary
Cell organelles are specialized entities that perform essential functions for the survival of cells, such as harvesting energy, making new proteins, and getting rid of waste.
1
Different organelles have different functions, such as the plasma membrane which encapsulates the contents of the cell, the nucleus which houses DNA and proteins, mitochondria which contain DNA, vacuoles which store molecules, and the cytoskeleton which helps maintain the shape of the cell and anchors the nucleus.
2
Other organelles include the cell wall, centrioles, cilia and flagella, chloroplast, endoplasmic reticulum, endosomes, golgi body, intermediate filaments, lysozyme, microfilaments, microtubules, microvilli, peroxisomes, plastmodesmata, ribosomes, storage granules, and vesicles.

These organelles are responsible for providing shape, regulating what can be allowed to enter and exit the cell, generating and distributing signals, and allowing the interaction between cells.

Summary
Core organelles are found in virtually all eukaryotic cells. They carry out essential functions that are necessary for the survival of cells – harvesting energy, making new proteins, getting rid of waste and so on. Core organelles include the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum and several others

Summary
Organelles make up the subunits of a cell, and there are numerous each with their own function. The plasma membrane is the organelle that encapsulates the contents of the cell, while the nucleus houses DNA and various proteins. Mitochondria are some of the largest organelles within a cell, and they contain DNA which makes them semiautonomous. Vacuoles are a space inside the cell that does not contain cytoplasm and store various molecules, while the cytoskeleton helps maintain the shape of the cell and anchoring the nucleus.

Summary
Cell organelles are specialized entities present inside a particular type of cell that perform a specific function. Common cell organelles include the cell membrane, cell wall, centrioles, cilia and flagella, chloroplast, cytoplasm, endoplasmic reticulum, endosomes, golgi body, intermediate filaments, lysozyme, microfilaments, microtubules, microvilli, mitochondria, nucleus, peroxisomes, plastmodesmata, ribosomes, storage granules, vacuole, and vesicles. These organelles are responsible for providing shape, regulating what can be allowed to enter and exit the cell, generating and distributing signals, and allowing the interaction between cells.

Summary
Organelles are compartments within the cell that perform a specific function, usually isolated from the rest of the cytoplasm through intracellular membranes. They can be classified in a number of ways, such as their origin, function, and size, and can be surrounded by a membrane or made from a different complement of lipids and proteins. Organelles can be classified based on their origin, function, and size, and can be used to organize the cytoskeleton, synthesize proteins, and process RNA.

Summary
Cells are tiny units of life that are like specialized factories, full of machinery designed to accomplish the business of life. Eukaryotes are the cell type that contains organelles, and their functions include DNA storage, energy production, protein production, lipid production, and more. The ribosome is the production line, and the cytoplasm is the liquid found within the cell membrane that houses the organelles.

Organelles are also called vesicles within a cell. And they really have a function that's important, because we need to compartmentalize all the functions within the cell. So there needs…
