* '''Ribosomes''': The [[ribosome]] is a large complex of [[RNA]] and [[protein]] molecules.<ref name="NCBI"/> They each consist of two subunits, and act as an assembly line where RNA from the nucleus is used to synthesise proteins from amino acids. Ribosomes can be found either floating freely or bound to a membrane (the rough endoplasmatic reticulum in eukaryotes, or the cell membrane in prokaryotes).<ref>{{cite journal  |last1=Ménétret |first1=Jean-François |last2=Schaletzky |first2=Julia |last3=Clemons |first3=William M. |last4=Osborne |first4=Andrew R. |last5=Skånland |first5=Sigrid S. |last6=Denison |first6=Carilee |last7=Gygi |first7=Steven P. |last8=Kirkpatrick |first8=Don S. |last9=Park |first9=Eunyong |last10=Ludtke |first10=Steven J. |last11=Rapoport |first11=Tom A. |last12=Akey |first12=Christopher W. |display-authors=3 |title=Ribosome binding of a single copy of the SecY complex: implications for protein translocation |journal=Molecular Cell |volume=28 |issue=6 |pages=1083–1092 |date=December 2007 |pmid=18158904 |doi=10.1016/j.molcel.2007.10.034 |url=https://authors.library.caltech.edu/90566/2/1-s2.0-S1097276507008258-mmc1.pdf |doi-access=free |access-date=2020-09-01 |archive-date=2021-01-21 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210121115905/https://authors.library.caltech.edu/90566/2/1-s2.0-S1097276507008258-mmc1.pdf |url-status=live }}</ref>
* '''Plastids''': [[Plastid]] are membrane-bound organelle generally found in plant cells and [[Euglenid|euglenoids]] and contain specific ''pigments'', thus affecting the colour of the plant and organism. And these pigments also helps in food storage and tapping of light energy. There are three types of plastids based upon the specific pigments. [[Chloroplast]]s contain [[chlorophyll]] and some carotenoid pigments which helps in the tapping of light energy during photosynthesis. [[Chromoplast]]s contain fat-soluble [[carotenoid]] pigments like orange carotene and yellow xanthophylls which helps in synthesis and storage. [[Leucoplast]]s are non-pigmented plastids and helps in storage of nutrients.<ref>{{cite book |last=Sato |first=N. |year=2006 |pages=75–102 |title=The Structure and Function of Plastids |volume=23 |editor1=Wise, R.
