Question

1. which sequence shows how organelles work together to help the cell do its job?

○ golgi packages materials → nucleus gives instructions → ribosomes make proteins → cell membrane lets things in
○ nucleus gives instructions → ribosomes make proteins → golgi packages them → cell membrane sends them out
○ ribosomes make proteins → mitochondria send messages → nucleus builds energy → cell membrane controls dna
○ cell membrane builds proteins → nucleus releases energy → golgi sends messages → ribosomes make energy

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the function of each organelle:

• Nucleus: Contains DNA and gives instructions (like genetic code for protein synthesis).
• Ribosomes: Synthesize proteins based on nuclear instructions.
• Golgi apparatus: Modifies, sorts, and packages proteins (and other materials) for transport.
• Cell membrane: Can secrete (send out) the packaged materials.

Now, check each option:

• First option: Golgi packages first, but instructions should come from nucleus first. Incorrect.
• Second option: Nucleus gives instructions → Ribosomes make proteins → Golgi packages them → Cell membrane sends them out. This follows the correct order of organelle functions.
• Third option: Mitochondria produce energy, not send messages; Nucleus doesn’t build energy (mitochondria do); Cell membrane doesn’t control DNA. Incorrect.
• Fourth option: Cell membrane doesn’t build proteins; Nucleus doesn’t release energy (mitochondria do); Golgi doesn’t send messages; Ribosomes make proteins, not energy. Incorrect.

Answer:

Nucleus gives instructions → Ribosomes make proteins → Golgi packages them → Cell membrane sends them out
