The rough ER produces secretory proteins in a plant cell. Secretory proteins perform
their function outside the cell.
Make protein
The primary function of the nucleolus is in facilitating ribosome biogenesis, through
the processing and assembly of rRNA into preribosomal particles.
Store DNA
Serves to separate the chromosomes from the cell's cytoplasm and other contents
Make energy
Make glucose
Modify and sort proteins
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum lacks ribosomes and helps synthesize and
concentrate various substances needed by the cell.
Store water
