MCQ on Cell Organelles

Advertisements

Cell organelles are specialized structures within cells that perform specific functions necessary for the survival and proper functioning of the cell. There are various types of organelles present in cells, each with its own unique structure and function.

Some examples of organelles include:

  1. Nucleus – contains genetic material (DNA) and regulates gene expression
  2. Mitochondria – produces energy (ATP) for the cell through cellular respiration
  3. Ribosomes – synthesizes proteins
  4. Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) – synthesizes and modifies proteins and lipids
  5. Golgi Apparatus – modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids for transport within or outside the cell
  6. Lysosomes – breaks down cellular waste and debris
  7. Peroxisomes – breaks down toxic substances within the cell
  8. Vacuoles – stores water, nutrients, and waste products in plant cells
  9. Chloroplasts – performs photosynthesis in plant cells
  10. Cytoskeleton – provides structural support and aids in cell movement

Each organelle has a specific function that contributes to the overall functioning of the cell. Without these organelles, cells would not be able to carry out essential processes necessary for life.
