Question

Nelly goes shopping on a weekday. She picks up protein powder so she can make a protein shake. She buys a double cheeseburger on her way home. She eats part of it, and then stores the rest of it in a paper bag so she can eat it later. Later in the day, she puts together several small packages of candies as gifts for her nieces and nephews. She labels each package and sends it through the mail. Match each item or action with the organelle it could represent. Tiles vacuole Golgi apparatus ribosome

Answer 1

The correct answer will be option

1. Ribosome- related to protein and protein shake.

2. Golgi apparatus- related to the packaging of the candies.

3. Vacuole- related to storage of cheeseburger.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ribosome is the organelle which synthesizes the proteins after reading the nitrogenous bases of the mRNA. This is represented in the given question when she picks the protein powder to make a shake.

The vacuole is a cell organelle which helps in the storage of cellular materials-beneficial as well as harmful. In the given question this is represented by when she stores the cheeseburger in sandpaper.

Golgi apparatus is a cell organelle which helps in the modification of the proteins and packaging of proteins for further use. This is represented by the packaging of the candies and sending it to mail.

Thus, the selected answers are the correct options.

Answer 2

She picks up protein powder so she can make a protein shake-This represents ribosome, organelle specified for the biological protein synthesis (translation). In this case protein powder represents amino acids, structural units for the protein synthesis.

She eats part of it, and then stores the rest of it in a paper bag so she can eat it later. Paper bag in this case represents vacuole, organelle that contains molecules that have been engulfed.

Later in the day, she puts together several small packages of candies as gifts for her nieces and nephews. She labels each package and sends it through the mail . This represents the function of the Golgi apparatus, the eukaryotic organelle that packages proteins into vesicles inside the cell before the vesicles are sent to their destination via certain patway.
