Question

PLEASE EXPLAIN WHY ! THANKS

1. Consider two cells with the smae volume but with very different surface areas sue to differences in their shapes. The cell with larger surface area is likely to?

answer: be involved in the rapid uptake of the compound from the cell's environment.

***EXPLAIN why this is the answer***

2. Microtubules and microfilaments commonly work with which of the following to perfom many of their functions?

answer: nuclear envelope

***EXPLAIN why this is the answer***

3. Where are proteins produced OTHER THAN on ribosomes free in the cytosol or ribosomes attached to the ER?

a. lysosomes

b. golgi apparatus

c. nucleolus

d. mitochondria

***EXPLAIN why this is the answer***

Explanation / Answer

1) The cell with larger surface area is likely to be involved in the rapid uptake of the compound from the cell's environment.The high surface area is associated with high transport rates of compounds across the plasma membrane. The greater the surface area, then the potential for transport would be greater.

2) Microtubules and microfilaments commonly work with golgi apparatus  to perform many of their functions.

Localization and tubular connections of the Golgi apparatus are dependent on microtubules and microfilaments.

3) The correct option is d. mitochondria.

Mitochondrial proteins are synthesized on ribosomes, which translate messenger RNA into the amino acids and form the protein chain. Most of the proteins in mitochondria help in the regulation of genome.
