Golgi Bodies
Membrane-bound organelles in eukaryotic cells that modify, sort, and package proteins for secretion or delivery to other organelles.
Ribosomes
Cellular structures responsible for protein synthesis, translating messenger RNA into amino acid sequences.
Mitochondria
Organelles found in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells, involved in energy production through the process of cellular respiration.
