Question

Match the cellular function with its correct description:

1.) Site of synthesis of lipid and steroid molecules
2.) Produces ATP aerobically
3.) Site of enzymatic breakdown of phagocytized material
4.) Forms the mitotic spindle
5.) Packages protein for insertion in the cell membrane or for exocytosis

A) Golgi Apparatus
B) Endoplasmic Reticulum
C) Mitochondria
D) Lysosome
E) Nucleus

Answer 1

The cellular function and its correct description can be matched as follows: 1) SER, 2) Mitochondria, 3) Lysosome, 4) Microtubules of the Cytoskeleton, and 5) Golgi Apparatus. The matching pairs are B) Endoplasmic Reticulum, C) Mitochondria, D) Lysosome, Cytoskeleton (not one of the options provided), and A) Golgi Apparatus.

Step-by-step explanation:

To match the cellular function with its correct description, we can identify the following associations:

1. Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER) - Site of synthesis of lipid and steroid molecules.
2. Mitochondria - Produces ATP aerobically.
3. Lysosome - Site of enzymatic breakdown of phagocytized material.
4. Microtubules of the Cytoskeleton - Forms the mitotic spindle.
5. Golgi Apparatus - Packages protein for insertion in the cell membrane or for exocytosis.

The correct match would be:

1. Site of synthesis of lipid and steroid molecules - B) Endoplasmic Reticulum.
2. Produces ATP aerobically - C) Mitochondria.
3. Site of enzymatic breakdown of phagocytized material - D) Lysosome.
4. Forms the mitotic spindle - typically associated with Microtubules within the cell's Cytoskeleton rather than a specific organelle listed here.
5. Packages protein for insertion in the cell membrane or for exocytosis - A) Golgi Apparatus.
