of the organelle

ER; packages the proteins into vesicles and sends them to the right place
Lysosomes ✅breaks down and recycles old molecules; have digestive enzymes that

Mitochondria ✅organelle in which energy is generated; cellular energy is produced;
provides energy needed to power chemical reactions; cellular respiration (produces
energy in the form of ATP)
