The organelles typically found in
chondrocytes are golgi aparatus, rough
endoplasmic reticulum, nucleus and
mitochondrian.
golgi apparatus
Chondrocytes are mature cartilage cells placed in the lacunae of the cartilage matrix. They help aid in the production, repair, and function of the tissue.
One of the main functions is to produce the matrix of cartilage. They also make it easier for fluids to go through
the gelatinous layers (which make up cartilage).
rough ER
A Compound Microscope is the recommended microscope for viewing cells due to them being able to magnify the tiny details found in the cell.
nucleus
If the chondrocytes were to stop functioning
it may result in arthritis.

Chondrocytes are located in the lacunae. They can
only be found in cartilage. The body parts you can find
them in includes the joints between bones, rib cage,
the ear, nose, elbow, knee, ankle and the intervertebal
discs.
Chondrocytes arise in the bone marrow, in the form of a stem cell. Stem cells can transform into several different types of cells depending on needs.
