3

In a eukaryotic cell, which organelles deal with proteins?

63% Answer Correctly

Golgi apparatus

endoplasmic reticulum

ribosomes

all of these deal with proteins


Solution

The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell contains the genetic material of the cell and is surrounded by cytoplasm which contains many organelles. Ribosomes produce proteins, endoplasmic reticulum helps synthesize proteins and fats, and Golgi apparatus prepares proteins for use.

Convert 0C° to F°.

72% Answer Correctly

32

-32

0

16


Solution

To convert from C° to F° use:

\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)

\(F° = {9 \over 5}(0) + 32\)

\(F° = 0 + 32 = 32\)
