#7

What are the mitochondria?

200

This structure is the site of protein synthesis.

What is the ribosome?

200

This type of ER synthesizes proteins that will be secreted from the cell or inserted into membranes.

What is the rough ER?

200

Kartagener's Syndrome: Mucus and trapped microbes are not properly swept out of the respiratory tract. What organelle is affected?

#4

What is the golgi apparatus?

300

This organelle modifies and sorts proteins and other products before they are released in vesicles.

What is the Golgi apparatus?

300

These structures increase the cell's surface area for absorption and membrane transport.

What are microvilli?

300

#8

What is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum?

400

This organelle contains hydrolytic enzymes that break down and recycle damaged cellular materials.

What is the lysosome? 

400

In the human respiratory tract, these structures sweep mucus and trapped pathogens out of the airways.

#6

What is a peroxisome?

500

This organelle completes aerobic oxidation of glucose and beta-oxidation of fats.
 

What is the mitochondrion?

500
