Answer:
There are different types of proteins present which are made of amino acid sub-units. Proteins play various important functions in an organism's body. Some of these functions are:
- Growth and maintenance of cells and individuals.
- Antibodies are proteins which provide immunity.
- Enzymes are proteins which catalyze different reactions.
- Many proteins allow movement of substances inside and outside of the cell membrane. They are known as carrier proteins.
- Many proteins serve as structural proteins.
Answer:
More than 8.7 million species are living on the planet. Every single species is composed of a cell and it includes both single-celled and multicellular organisms.
The cells provide shape, structure and carries out different types of functions to keep the entire system active. The cell contains different functional structures which are collectively called Organelles, and they are involved in various cellular functions.

A Brief Summary on Cell Organelles
Carbonate groups contain a single carbon atom, and three oxygen atoms in a trigonal molecular geometry. The carbon atom has two single bonds to two oxygen atoms and a double bond to the third oxygen atom. Therefore, in addition to carbon, carbonate minerals contain oxygen. An example of a carbonate mineral is calcium carbonate, often found within rocks.

Some helpful tips:
The nucleus is always going to be the big, spherical shape.
The ER is always going to be a weird, folded looking structure attached to the nucleus (rough = has ribosomes on it which are usually represented by little dots, smooth = has no ribosomes on it aka no dots)
The GA looks like the ER but it is not going to be attached to the nucleus like the ER is.
The mitochondria is always going to be pill-shaped and have weird folds inside of it.
