Question

Match the description to the appropriate mechanism of transport into/out of cells.

Match the cell organelle or structure to the function. A Mitochondrion 8. Cytoskeleton C. Primary site of gene storage Primary site of energy transformation to ATP Breaks down organic wastes Primary site of protein synthesis Golgi apparatus Rough endoplasmic reticulum E. F. Ribosome Plasma membrane Primary site of lipid synthesis Packages proteins into secretory vesicles Lysosome Modifies newly formed proteins H Nucleus Communicates with other cells via physicalI contact Smooth endoplasmic reticulum Assists with movement of vesicles and organelles within the cell Controls the entry/exit of materials to/from the cell -

Explanation / Answer

Eukaryotic cells contain various cell organelles that have distinct function in synthesis and transport of substances in and out of cells.

Nucleus is the central organelle of a cell and it stores the genetic information in chromosomes containing genes that store the DNA. Primary site of gene storage matches with (H)

Mitochondria are powerhouses of the cells and are useful to generate the energy in the form of ATP. Primary site of energy transformation into ATP matches with (A)

Lysosomes are cell organelles that contain lytic enzymes and these are capable of breaking down of organic molecules and cellular wastes. Breaksdown organic wastes matches with (G)

Ribosomes are cellular organelles and are primary sites of protein synthesis. The statement matches with (F).

Endoplasmic reticulum is subdivided into rough and smooth endoplasmicreticulums. Ribosomes occur on rough endoplasmic reticulum and are absent on smooth endoplasmic reticulum. Lipids are synthesized on smooth endoplasmic reticulum. Site of lipid synthesis matches with (I)

Golgi appparatus is sac like structures that carryout the function of packing of proteins synthesized on ribosomes into vesicles and make ready for transport of proteins. Packages proteins into secretory vesicles matches with (C)

Rough endoplasmic reticulum is composed of ribosomes and proteins are synthesized on ribosomes. The newly formed proteins undergo modifications at rough endoplasmic reticulum. Modifies newly formed proteins match with (D)

Cells communicate with each other through physical contact or transmission of substances from cell to cell through channels or juctions that occur in cell membrane. This statement matches with (E)

cytoskeleton are elements containing microtubules, intermediate filaments and actin filaments. These cell organelles assist in the movement of other organelles and vesicles with in cell. Movement of vesicles and organelles match with (B)

Plasma membrane is selectively permeable membrane of cell that regulates the transport of substances in and out of cell. The statement matches with (E)
