Organelles enable a cell to carry out metabolism. They perform the same functions as organs in a human: digestion (lysosomes), ATP synthesis (mitochondria), control of cell processes / 'thinking' (nucleus), protection and regulation of diffusion (cell membrane). In short, they enable a cell to carry out its job.

Organelles are important because they carry out specific functions within cells, such as energy production (mitochondria), protein synthesis (rough endoplasmic reticulum), and waste removal (lysosomes). These specialized structures help maintain the cell's overall function and health.
