Multiple Choice
Which organelle contains enzymes necessary for lipid synthesis and the metabolism of drugs?
A
Golgi Apparatus
B
Lysosome
C
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
D
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
Verified step by step guidance
1
Identify the function of each organelle listed in the problem: Golgi Apparatus, Lysosome, Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum, and Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum.
Understand that the Golgi Apparatus is primarily involved in modifying, sorting, and packaging proteins and lipids for secretion or use within the cell.
Recognize that Lysosomes contain digestive enzymes that break down waste materials and cellular debris.
Recall that the Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum (SER) is involved in the synthesis of lipids, metabolism of carbohydrates, detoxification of drugs and poisons, and storage of calcium ions.
Note that the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER) is studded with ribosomes and is primarily involved in the synthesis of proteins destined for secretion or for use in the cell membrane.
