Maintenance Synthesis Division Organelle Respiration Plasma Membrane Smooth The three general functions of most cells include Maintenance, Synthesis and Division. Plasma Membrane surrounds cells as a thin skin. Organelle means little organs. Cellular Respiration happens in the mitochondria. The endoplasmic reticulum can be both Rough or Smooth. © Birch Valley Ranch @ http://birchvalleyranch.com
