Question

Can someone help with the labels for this ?

Answer 1

Answer:

Refer to the attached image for correct labeling.

Explanation:

• The diagram is of a plant cell and its organelles.
• The nucleus houses the genetic material and controls all life processes.
• A plant cell contains one large vacuole in the center that stores water and nutrients.
• Chloroplast is the site for photosynthesis. It captures light and utilizes it and carbondioxide to produce glucose.
• Mitochondria are called the power house of the cell. Through a process called cellular respiration, they break down the glucose produced in photosynthesis into energy compounds such as ATP as well as oxygen and water.
• The endoplasmic reticulum is the site for protein sysnthesis. It contains two parts: the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) which contains ribosomes that synthesize proteins and the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) which packages the proteins into transport vesicles.
• The nucleus contains the nucleolus that is the site for ribosome assembly.
• The cell membrane is a semi-permeable membrane that covers the cell and controls cellular transport.
• The cell wall is a hard, outer covering that protects the cell and maintains its structure and shape.
