Intermediate Filaments - create cell cohesion and prevent the acute fracture of epithelial cell sheets under tension. Vacuole – it helps maintain water balance and functions as storage, waste disposal, protection, and growth. Chloroplast – it converts light energy into relatively stable chemical energy via the photosynthetic process. Smooth ER – it makes cellular products like hormones and lipids. Peroxisome – plays important roles in metabolism, reactive oxygen species detoxification, and signaling. Amyloplast – it is responsible for the storage of starch granules. Cell Membrane – acts as a barrier keeping the constituents of the cell in and unwanted substances out. Cell Wall – surrounds the plasma membrane of the cell and provides tensile strength and protection against mechanical and osmotic stress. Granules – serve as small container of starch in the plant cell. Microtubules – they determine cell shape as they guide the deposition of cellulose microfibrils. Cytoplasm – supports and suspends organelles and cellular molecules.
