Answer 1

membrane-bound with internal compartments with specialized functions.

Question 2

Organelles are

Answer 2

Nucleus
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Golgi apparatus
Lysosomes
Mitochondria

Question 3

In the organelle (nucleus) what does it contain? and protects?

Answer 3

It contains our DNA (instructions for building proteins) and it protects DNA

Question 4

In ribosomes what do they make? and structure?

Answer 4

make polypeptide chains,
structure has 2 subunits

Question 5

Nuclear envelope

Answer 5

Double membrane (2 bilayers) surronds nucleus

Question 6

Nucleoplasm

Answer 6

area inside the nucleus

Question 7

Nucleolus

Answer 7

dense area in the nucleus, where ribosomes are produced.

Question 8

Rough Endoplasmic
reticulum

Answer 8

Newly made poly peptide
chains are folded into
proteins and a

steroids are made here.
Contains enzymes that
detoxify alcohol and
some drugs
