Answer:
In eukaryotes, thousands of chemical reactions are able to take place in separate compartments called organelles.
Explanation:
Organelles are specific cellular structures that are the means of compartmentalizing the various functions that occur within cells.
Examples of organelles and their functions are:
- <u>Nucleus</u>: contains DNA and in it occur the replication of this molecule and its transcription into RNA.
- <u>Rough endoplasmic reticulum</u>: protein synthesis and conjugation of these molecules occurs.
- <u>Mitochondrion</u>: houses all oxidative phosphorylation reactions and the electron transport chain for ATP synthesis to occur.
The organelles are then the structures that allow the development of the multiple functions that a cell has.
The other options are not correct because:
- <em><u>Bacteria</u></em><em> is a prokaryotic organism.
</em>
- <em><u>Prokaryote</u></em><em> refers to simple organisms that lack organelles.
</em>
- <em><u>Proteins</u></em><em> are biomolecules that allow the structure and function of living beings.</em>
