Question

30 POINTS!!! What are the functions of the nucleus, ribosome, and Endoplasmic reticulum!

Answer 1

Nucleus:

The nucleus is found in most cells. It is usually in the middle of animal cells. In plant cells, it is towards the edge. The nucleus hold the DNA, which is like a code that instructs the cell on what type of protein to synthesize.

Ribosome:

They are made of RNA and proteins, and are very small. This is where the cell, using instructions from the nucleus, synthesizes proteins by joining long chains of amino acids in a particular sequence.

Endoplasmic reticulum:

They can be either smooth or rough. Its main function is also to make proteins and lipids, and transporting and processing them.

Hope it helps!

Answer 2

Nucleus

The nucleus is the center of the cell. It holds the cell's DNA.

Ribosome(s)

The ribosome(s) are made of RNA. They translate genetic code into amino acids that hold proteins for the cell.

Endoplasmic reticulum

The endoplasmic reticulum produces proteins similar to the ribosome(s) so that the cell can function on a day-to-day basis.
