Question

as we mentioned in module 2, lactose - intolerant people cannot digest the disaccharide lactose due to the lack of an enzyme. which organelle in the cells of lactose - intolerant people does not have what it needs to get its job done?

Explanation:

Enzymes are proteins. Ribosomes are the organelles responsible for protein synthesis. Since lactose - intolerant people lack the enzyme (protein) to digest lactose, the ribosome (which makes proteins) does not have what it needs (the correct genetic instructions or resources in some cases related to making that specific enzyme protein) to get its job (making the lactose - digesting enzyme) done.

Answer:

Ribosome
