Where does protein synthesis take place? A) in the nucleolus B) on smooth endoplasmic reticulum C) on ribosomes D) in the nucleus E) in the Golgi apparatus 29. A cell you view under a microscope has a cell wall and chromosomes but no nucleus. The cell you are viewing could be a a) human muscle cell. b) cell from the leaf of a maple tree. c) bacterium recovered from the large intestine of a mammal. d) cell from the skin of a potato 30. Which of the following cell structures is (are) found in both animal and plant cells? A) mitochondria B) chloroplasts C) centrioles D) large central vacuole E) cell wall Based on its function in detoxifying drugs, you would expect to find a large amount of smooth endoplasmic reticulum ER in______ cells. A) brain B) lung C) liver D) intestinal E) muscle 31. Instructions: Complete the table below with either the organelle performing the stated function, or the function performed by the organelle listed: Organelle | Function --- | --- | Synthesis of components of the ribosome | Digests worn out organelles and cells Microtubules | Golgi Apparatus | | Synthesis of proteins used inside a cell Mitochondria | Vacuole | Cilia |

All of the following are properties of the endoplasmic reticulum except: - some parts have embedded ribosomes - it is usually found immediately surrounding the nucleus - its main role is hydrolysis of macromolecules - it is involved with synthesis of lipids - it appears as a group of membranous sacs and tubes
