Which cell structures are correctly paired with their function?

A. The mitochondria produce enzymes and ribosomes transport them.

B. The ribosomes make proteins and the nucleus stores genetic information.

C. The cell membrane makes enzymes and the cytoplasm transports them.

**b) the ribosomes make proteins and the nucleus stores genetic information
**
This is the correct sentence which states the accurate description and function of the organelles –ribosomes and nucleus mentioned. Furthermore, to analyze the other given. Mitochondria is the power house of the cell and uses ATP to produce biological energy which is used for the cell functions. And Golgi bodies are the organelles responsible for packing, modifying and transportation of proteins and enzymes from the ER. Cytoplasm is the where the organelles are suspended. Cell membrane is the covering outermost layer of an animal cell.

The correct pairing of cell structure and function is 'b) the ribosomes make proteins and the nucleus stores genetic information.' Ribosomes synthesize proteins while the nucleus contains DNA, which directs protein synthesis. Mitochondria generate ATP and are known as the cell's power plants, and both vesicles and vacuoles are involved in storage and transport within the cell. ;

The correct answer is B, which states that ribosomes make proteins and the nucleus stores genetic information. Options A and C contain incorrect information regarding the functions of mitochondria and the cell membrane. Therefore, only option B accurately pairs the cell structures with their functions.
