Question 23

Membranous sacs containing a variety of powerful enzymes (oxidase and catalases)

Answer 23

Peroxisomes

Question 24

In what organelle does cellular respiration take place?

Answer 24

The mitochondria

Question 25

What is the list of organelles that take part in protein synthesis?

Answer 25

The nucleus, ribosomes, rough endoplasmic reticulum, and the golgi apparatus

Question 26

How is the nucleus involved in protein synthesis?

Answer 26

The RNA polymerase unzips and reads one side of the DNA strand (found in the nucleus) and mRNA is formed

Question 27

How does the membrane of cell differ from the nuclear membrane? What advantages does this difference have for the nucleus?

Answer 27

The cell membrane protects the cell while the nuclear membrane only protects the nucleus. This advantages the nucleus because it gets twice the protection.

Answer 28

Rough ER has ribosomes and smooth ER doesn't
