What is function of a ribosome?
To synthesize RNA and turn RNA into proteins.
True or False: The nucleolus is the control center of the cell.
Daily Double: Provide a definition of the nucleolus and nucleus.
False
Daily Double: The nucleus is the control center of the cell, and contains most of the DNA of the cell. The nucleolus is responsible for making ribosomes and produces RNA.

Explain the difference between the rough and smooth ER.
*Your answer must include an explanation of difference in appearance and function.*
Rough ER: Has ribsomes on the outside and is responsible for synthesizing proteins and producing more complex proteins within the cell.
Smooth ER: Produces lipids that can be used in making new pieces of the cell membrane.
