Animal cells must work together in order to obtain nutrients and produce energy. Students were asked to create an explanation about the organelles involved in this process. Which student’s explanation is correct?
A. Student D is correct because they said the cell membrane allows the nutrients into the cell and the cytoplasm allows the nutrients to move across to the cell to be broken down by the mitochondria to create energy, and the lysosome gets rid of waste.
B. Student A is correct because they said the nucleus provides the organelles instructions to carry out their jobs, the lysosome breaks down the nutrients to create energy, and the mitochondria gets rid of waste.
C. Student B is correct because they said the nucleus provides the organelles instructions to carry out their jobs, the cell membrane stores the nutrients until the mitochondria breaks them down to create energy.
D. Student C is correct because they said the cell membrane allows the nutrients into the cell and the cytoplasm allows nutrients to move across to the cell to be stored in the lysosome until they need to be broken down by the mitochondria.
