What cellular organelle contains chromosomes and has the literal meaning "nut"?

Lori Robel · Accepted Answer

Nucleus is the organelle that contains chromosomes

Lori Robel · Answer

nucleusExplanation: The nucleus contains the DNA which is a genetic material that contains all the instructions for protein synthesis. Before proteins are produced, the DNA is first of all copied into an single stranded RNA in a process known as transcription. This process takes place in the nucleus. The single stranded RNA then leaves the nucleus to the ribosome where protein synthesis takes place, there the RNA is translated into a polypeptide chain.

PeroxisomesExplanation:Peroxisomes are animal cell organelle that possess enzymes which eliminate hydrogen atoms from various substrates and transfer the eliminated hydrogen atoms to oxygen, thereby producing hydrogen peroxide, as a by product.

Lori Robel · Answer

ribosomesExplanation:As mentioned earlier, ribosomes are the molecular machines responsible for protein synthesis. ...In eukaryotes, ribosomes get their orders to synthesize core proteins, where segments of the DNA (genes) are transcribed to produce messenger RNA (mRNA).

I'm pretty sure the answer is B.) Ribosomes

Lori Robel · Answer

It should be the mitochondria

Lori Robel · Answer

Lysosomes are cellular organelles that contain acid hydrolase enzymes that break down waste materials and cellular debris. They can be described as the stomach of the cell. Lysosomes digest excess or worn-out organelles, food particles, and engulfed viruses or bacteria.
