Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which cell structure is correctly paired with its primary function?
A
ribosome-movement
B
mitocondria-energy production
C
vacuole-cell division
D
nucleus-storage of nutrients
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Expert-Verified Answer. Explanation: Ribosomes are structures that are floating in cytoplasm and can be found attached to the endoplasmic reticulum.

Detailed explanation-2: -So, the correct answer is ‘ Ribosomes – synthesis of proteins’

Detailed explanation-4: -The nucleus is particularly important among eukaryotic organelles because it is the location of a cell’s DNA. Two other critical organelles are mitochondria and chloroplasts, which play important roles in energy conversion and are thought to have their evolutionary origins as simple single-celled organisms.

Detailed explanation-5: -Mitochondria interact with the endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, cytoskeleton, peroxisomes, and nucleus in several ways, ranging from signal transduction, vesicle transport, and membrane contact sites, to regulate energy metabolism, biosynthetic processes, apoptosis, and cell turnover.
