Question

Name the four functional categories described in the text for eukaryotic organelles. Site example organelles for each category. Describe the structural similarities that underlie the function of each group. Give examples of each subclass. Explain how each of the categories works together to produce the emergent properties at the cellular level.

Answer 1

#4 functional categaries of eukaryotic organelles:

1.Manufacturing function:

nucleus,ribosomes,Endoplasmic reticulum,golgi apparatus

nucleus and ribosomes are work togetherly for DNA synthesis,polypeptide synthesis,lipid synthesis etc.

2.Breakdown function

lysosomes,vacuoles and peroxisomes

lysosomes are digests various products like nutrients,bacterai,damages organelles

peroxisome are diverse metabolic processse with breakdown of H2O2 by products

and vacuoles helps for storage of chemiucals,cell enlargement and water balance

lysosome are attaches with vacuole and lysosome enzymes will break down

3.Energy production

mitochondria(all food material which are substrate for chemical energy production in form of ATP is done by mitocondria) and chloroplast(present in plants-conversion of light energy to chemical form of energy)

4.Support,movement and communication between cells

cytoskeleton,plasma membrane and cell wall

mainatenance of cell shape and skeletal support,surface protection binding cells to tissue this all function work togetherly by above all organelles.
