Answer:
Three important organelles in the cell are nucleus, mitochondria and rough endoplasmic reticulum.
Explanation:
Cellular organelles are structures that are mainly found in all eukaryotic cells and are linked to the fulfilment of their main functions. In a cell all organelles are important and each one of them fulfills a specific function. Three of the main organelles of the cell are
:
- Cell nucleus: structure that is located in the center of the intracellular space and contains all the genetic information, in the form of DNA.
- Mitochondria: responsible for hosting all metabolic processes that lead to energy production, such as oxidative phosphorylation.
- Rough endoplasmic reticulum: it is associated to another important organelle, the ribosome, being in charge of the synthesis, transport and secretion of proteins.
Prokaryotic cells, whose structure is simpler, lack nuclei and most organelles.
