    • A.

      Course focus

    • B.

      Fine focus

    • C.

      Doesn't matter

    Correct Answer
    A. Course focus
    Explanation
    When focusing on a slide, it is recommended to use the course focus first. The course focus allows for a rough adjustment of the focus, bringing the slide into view. Once the slide is roughly in focus, the fine focus can then be used to make finer adjustments and achieve a clearer and more detailed image. Using the course focus first ensures that the slide is brought into focus quickly and efficiently before making any fine adjustments.

    The Golgi apparatus is responsible for storing and moving molecules within the cell. It acts as a processing and packaging center, receiving proteins and lipids from the endoplasmic reticulum and modifying them before sending them to their final destinations. The Golgi apparatus consists of a series of flattened sacs called cisternae, which are involved in sorting, modifying, and packaging molecules into vesicles for transport. Overall, the Golgi apparatus plays a crucial role in maintaining the organization and functionality of the cell by ensuring that molecules are properly processed and distributed.

    Transport substances

    Correct Answer
    vesicle
    Explanation
    Vesicles are small sacs or pouches that are involved in the transport of substances within cells. They are responsible for packaging and delivering molecules such as proteins, lipids, and neurotransmitters to their intended destinations. Vesicles are formed by the budding of membranes from various cellular compartments, allowing them to carry their cargo to specific locations within the cell or to the cell membrane for secretion. Therefore, the correct answer, "vesicle," accurately describes the cellular structure involved in the transport of substances.

    What cell organelle makes lipids and gets rid of toxins

    Correct Answer
    endoplasmic reticulum
    er
    Explanation
    The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a cell organelle responsible for synthesizing lipids and detoxifying harmful substances. It consists of a network of tubules and membranes that are involved in various cellular processes. The ER plays a crucial role in lipid metabolism, as it produces lipids that are essential for cell structure and function. Additionally, it contains enzymes that help in detoxifying toxins and drugs by modifying them into more water-soluble forms, making them easier to eliminate from the cell. Therefore, the ER is the correct answer for the organelle that makes lipids and gets rid of toxins.

    Mitochondria create energy and lipids ______________ energy

    Correct Answer
    store
    Explanation
    Mitochondria are responsible for producing energy in the form of ATP through cellular respiration. They are often referred to as the "powerhouses" of the cell. On the other hand, lipids are a type of biomolecule that serves as a long-term energy storage molecule in the body. So, the correct answer is "store," as lipids store energy rather than create it.
