Question

drag and match match the following structures with the corresponding functions. lysosomes smooth endoplasmic reticulum centrioles ribosomes form spindle fibers during cell division calcium storage recycling large organic molecules protein synthesis

Explanation:

• Lysosomes: Contain enzymes to break down (recycle) large organic molecules like old organelles or macromolecules.
• Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER): One of its functions is storing calcium ions (especially in muscle cells for muscle contraction).
• Centrioles: Involved in organizing microtubules to form spindle fibers during cell division (mitosis/meiosis).
• Ribosomes: Are the sites of protein synthesis, where amino acids are assembled into proteins.

Answer:

• Form spindle fibers during cell division: Centrioles
• Calcium storage: Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
• Recycling large organic molecules: Lysosomes
• Protein synthesis: Ribosomes
