Plant Cell Organelles

2. work to keep the vacuole acidic by bringing in protons
3. sorting many of the cell's proteins and membrane constituents
4. form the internal membrane system in chloroplasts
6. support and suspend organelles and cellular molecules
12. synthesizes lipids, phospholipids as in plasma membranes
13. serve as cytoplasmic bridges to facilitate exchange of molecules between neighboring cells
16. provides tensile strength and protection against mechanical and osmotic stress
17. allow plants to capture the energy of the Sun in energy-rich molecules
18. sole site of fatty acid β-oxidation
19. vesicles for delivery to targeted destinations

1. produce proteins for the rest of the cell to function
5. grain, store starch which will provide food for the plant
7. keeps the contents of the nucleus
8. synthesize proteins from amino acids
9. help maintain water balance; control of cell volume and cell turgor
10. providing energy to carry out biochemical reactions and other cellular processes
11. separate and protect the intracellular environment from the extracellular space
14. provides mechanical support to the cell and its cytoplasmic constituents
15. RNA synthesis and ribosome biogenesis
