Question

question 5

1. which organelle is correctly paired with its specific function?

vacuole - production of atp

cell membrane - storage of hereditary information

ribosome - synthesis of proteins

chloroplast - transport of materials

Explanation:

• Vacuole: Its main functions are storage (e.g., of water, nutrients, waste), maintaining turgor pressure in plant cells, not ATP production. ATP production occurs in mitochondria (in most eukaryotic cells) and chloroplasts (in plant cells during photosynthesis).
• Cell Membrane: It controls the movement of substances in and out of the cell (selective permeability), acts as a barrier. Storage of hereditary information is the function of DNA (located mainly in the nucleus in eukaryotic cells).
• Ribosome: It is the site of protein synthesis. It reads the mRNA sequence and assembles amino acids into polypeptide chains (proteins) according to the genetic code.
• Chloroplast: Its main function is photosynthesis (converting light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose). Transport of materials is a function of structures like vesicles, endoplasmic reticulum (in terms of intracellular transport of proteins and lipids in some cases), cell membrane (for transport across the cell boundary).

Answer:

Ribosome - Synthesis of proteins
