Nucleus
http://www.buzzle.com/articles/nucleus-function.html
- The funtion of the nucleus is to hold the cells chromatin such as DNA so the RNA can form the organelles proteins.
- The nucleus doesn't really have a set point were it's located but it's usually located in the middle of the cell inside an atom.

Vacuole
http://www.buzzle.com/articles/vacuole-function.html
- The function of the vacuole is to store sap such as food, water, and waste.
- The vacuole is located in the cytoplasm of the cell, but plant cells have a single vacuole while the animal cell has many small vacuoles.

- The main function of lysosomes are to help break down food particles and other materials, it is also the cell's waste disposal system and can digest some compounds.
- The lysosomes are located mainly in the cytoplasm
