Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The structure described is the nucleus, which is the organelle that contains the cell's DNA.

Answer: J
 The rough endoplasmic reticulum is studded with ribosomes and is involved in protein synthesis.

Answer: H
 Mitochondria are responsible for producing energy in the form of ATP through cellular respiration.

Answer: D
 The nucleolus is a dense, spherical structure within the nucleus that is responsible for producing ribosomes.

Answer: G
 Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles that contain enzymes for breaking down cellular waste and debris.

Answer: I
 Peroxisomes are organelles that contain enzymes for breaking down fatty acids, amino acids, and toxins.

Answer: F
 Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis and can be found either free in the cytoplasm or attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum.

Answer: A
 The plasma membrane, also known as the cell membrane, surrounds the cell and regulates the passage of molecules in and out of the cell.

Answer: C
 The Golgi apparatus is responsible for modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids for transport to their final destinations.

Answer: K
 Proteasomes are organelles that are responsible for breaking down damaged or misfolded proteins.
