What information does DNA provide to each of the cell's organelles?
Vinvika [58]

Some organelles are responsible for gathering cell energy, others for controlling cell activities. Plant cells have different organelles than animal cells but also share many also. They all have a large variety of sizes and functions and make life as we know if possible. Click the links in the yellow boxes for more detailed information on each of the organelles.
