Chloroplasts Chloroplasts Chloroplasts photosynthesis photosynthesis photosynthesis (only plant cells and some bacteria) Golgi apparatus Golgi apparatus Golgi apparatus Golgi apparatus changes molecules and packages changes molecules and packages them into small sacs called vesicles. sacs can be sent anywhere in the sacs can be sent anywhere in the cell: even outside of it. Lysosome Lysosome digests waste materials and food digests waste materials and food Uses strong digestive enzymes. Uses strong digestive enzymes.enzymes
