    Organelle #18 is identified as chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is a pigment found in chloroplasts, which are responsible for giving plants their green color. Chlorophyll plays a crucial role in photosynthesis, where it absorbs sunlight and converts it into energy in the form of glucose and oxygen. Therefore, the description provided in the question matches the characteristics of chlorophyll.

    What is an organelle?

    • A.

      Organelles are tiny structures inside a cell that carry out the functions of the cell.

    • B.

      Organelles are tiny structures inside a cell that transport nutrients and proteins throughout the cell.

    • C.

      Organelles are round structures that contain chemicals that breakdown certain unwanted materials in the cell.

    • D.

      Organelles are structures inside the cell that convert energy in food molecules to energy the cell can use to carry out its functions.

    Correct Answer
    A. Organelles are tiny structures inside a cell that carry out the functions of the cell.
    Explanation
    The correct answer explains that organelles are tiny structures inside a cell that carry out the functions of the cell. This means that organelles are responsible for performing specific tasks within the cell, such as protein synthesis, energy production, and waste removal. They are like the organs of a cell, each with its own specialized function, working together to ensure the cell's survival and proper functioning.

    Why is chromatin important to the cell?

    • A.

      Chromatin is important to the cell because the thin strands of chromatin contains genetic material (DNA), the instructions for directing the cell's functions.

    • B.

      Chromatin is important to the cell because the small object floats around the nucleus and produces the ribosomes that make proteins for the cell.

    • C.

      Chromatin is important to the cell because is a clear, thick gel-like fluid that keeps the other organelles moving throughout the cell.

    • D.

      Chromatin is important to the cell because it is a ribbon-like structure that helps transport proteins from the nucleus to other areas of the cell.

    Correct Answer
    A. Chromatin is important to the cell because the thin strands of chromatin contains genetic material (DNA), the instructions for directing the cell's functions.
    Explanation
    Chromatin is important to the cell because it contains genetic material (DNA), which provides the instructions for directing the cell's functions. DNA carries the information necessary for the cell to carry out essential processes such as growth, development, and reproduction. By condensing and packaging the DNA into chromatin, the cell is able to tightly regulate gene expression and ensure that the appropriate genes are activated or repressed at the right time. This allows the cell to maintain its proper functioning and adapt to different environmental conditions.
