Organelles With Membranes
Lysosomes
Location: Lysosomes are found in the cytoplasm of the cell.
Structure: Lysosomes are sack- like structures with a single membrane. They hold very powerful digestive enzymes.
Function: The Lysosomes break down old cells, old organelles, and food particles for the cell. They are the "digestive system" and "garbage "disposel" of the cell.

Vacuoles
Location: The Vacuoles of a cell are located in the cytoplasm. Vacuoles are commonly found in plant cells.
Structure: Vacuoles are fluid- filled spaces in the cell that are surrounded by a single membrane.
Function: Vacuoles store food, water, nutrients, and wastes of a cell.

Mitochondria
Location: The Mitochondria of a cell are located in the cytoplasm.
Structure: Mitochondria are rod- shaped structures with a double membrane.
Function: The Mitochondria are the sight of Cellular Respiration. They are responsible for making and storing usable energy (ATP) for the cell.
