Question

a researcher claims that all living cells must be able to synthesize proteins in order to maintain homeostasis and perform basic functions. what statement supports the scientists claim? a ribosomes are required for protein synthesis, and all four cell types can synthesize proteins. b nuclei house the dna, which is the blueprint for proteins. cell types i, ii, and iii can synthesize proteins. c cell walls are required for cells to maintain their

Explanation:

The claim is that all living cells must synthesize proteins for homeostasis and basic functions. Option A supports this as it states that ribosomes (required for protein synthesis) are present in all four cell - types which can synthesize proteins. Option B only mentions three cell - types and option C is about cell walls and not protein synthesis.

Answer:

A. Ribosomes are required for protein synthesis, and all four cell types can synthesize proteins.
