Question
Chapter 3, Problem 10WIO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The similarities between different organelles (parts) of the cells and the parts of a factory.
Introduction:
A eukaryotic cell possesses various types of cell organelles such as endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi body, lysosomes, mitochondria, and chloroplast. All these organelles are involved in performing various types of essential functions in the body of living organisms.

One way to understand cell function is to compare the parts of a cellto the parts of a factory. For example, the Golgi apparatus would beanalogous to the factory’s shipping department. How would the othercell parts fit into this analogy?
Use the analogy of the cell as a manufacturing factory to describe the function of the following cell structures: plasma membrane, mitochondria, nucleus, Golgi, ribosomes, lysosomes, endoplasmic reticulum.
In the micrograph below, you are seeing a collection of cells that have been stained with fluorescent dyes. One of the dyes appears green, and the other dye appears blue (when viewed with a fluorescence microscope). Examine it and answer the question below.
Based on the appearance of these stained cells, which of the following cell structures must the GREEN dye be staining?
Endoplasmic reticulum
Cytoskeleton
Flagella
Mitochondria
Nucleus

Endoplasmic reticulum Cytoskeleton Flagella Mitochondria Nucleus ..arrow_forwardThe physical characteristics of a cell influence how it functions. For example, the surface area and volume of a cell affect how efficiently waste is removed from the cell via diffusion. The table below shows data for four different cuboidal cells. Cuboidal cell Side length (um) Cell A 1 Cell B Cell C Cell D Surface area of a cube: A = 6s2 Volume of a cube: V = s3 Using the information from the table, what is the surface-area-to-volume ratio for the cuboidal cell that removes waste via diffusion most efficiently? -1 um 2. 4.arrow_forward

Describe your journey through the cell after the nucleus has given the instructions to have you made. Describe how each organelle affects your journey as you travel through the cell and, ultimately, through the cell membrane. Organelles you should mention include the nucleus, nuclear membrane, nucleolus, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, cytoplasm, Golgi body, and plasma/cell membrane. Be creative and describe as many organelles as you wantarrow_forwardIn point form, describe and explain how the organelles listed play a role in each major function in the cell. Organelles work together to transport materials in and out of the cell. Organelles involved: Golgi Apparatus, vesicles, cell membrane answer in simple formarrow_forward
- An organism can be just a single cell such as a bacterium or can be made up of trillions of cells like humans. However, each cell is like a machine. It has many parts and each works in concert with the other. In this post, you will demonstrate an understanding of the functions of organelle and how they work together in cells. Pick one cell organelle, describe its structure and function and then discuss how it works with another cell organelle. Don't forget to add a question to get the class engaged in discussion.arrow_forwardChoose TWO of the cell structures from the list provided. Explain the general appearance of each briefly and the specific function in the cell.
