<span>Proteins that minimize fluctuations in pH are known as buffers. A buffering agent can be either a weak acid or weak base. Buffering agents are usually added to water to form a buffer solution, which only slightly changes its pH in response to other acids and bases being combined with it, particularly a strong acid or a strong base.</span>

2. Nucleus

3. Mitochondria

4. ATP

5. Chloroplast

6. Glucose

7. Ribosomes

Explanation:

This question is describing the organelles found in a cell. An organelle is a structure that performs a specific FUNCTION (1) in a cell. There are different kinds of organelles with each possessing its own peculiar function. Some of them are as follows:

- NUCLEUS, which is regarded as the brain of a cell because it directs or controls a cell's activities just like the brain of an organism does.

- MITOCHONDRIA is an organelle that produces the energy storing compound called ATP (adenosine triphosphate), hence, it is called power house of the cell.

- CHLOROPLAST is an organelle found in plant cells that functions in the conversion of light energy (from sun) into GLUCOSE (chemical energy) in a process called PHOTOSYNTHESIS.

- RIBOSOMES is an organelle found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells that serves as the site of PROTEIN production in a cell.

Mitochondria and chloroplasts are thought to have been ______.
yawa3891 [41]
Mitochondria and chloroplasts likely evolved from engulfed prokaryotes that once lived as independent organisms.
(At some point, a eukaryotic cell engulfed an aerobic prokaryote, which then formed an endosymbiotic relationship with the host eukaryote, gradually developing into a mitochondrion. Eukaryotic cells containing mitochondria then engulfed photosynthetic prokaryotes, which evolved to become specialized chloroplast organelles).
