If we see a large number of mitochondria in a cell, we can infer that the cell has a great metabolic demand. A high metabolic demand means that the cell requires a large amount of energy released in the process called cellular respiration. The mitochondria are where most of the energy of the cell is made.

FALSE. Cholesterol is synthesized in another organelle called the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and then transported to other organelles within the cell. Some of the cholesterol are delivered to the cell membrane where cholesterol provides structural support. Some cholesterol are also transported to the mitochondria.

FALSE.The packaging of proteins for secretion happens not in the mitochondria but in another organelle called the Golgi apparatus. The Golgi Apparatus is the organelle responsible for the packaging and distribution of proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum. The Golgi apparatus sends out proteins in sacs called vesicles to where they are needed either inside or outside the cell. It is also responsible for the production of lysosomes which are digestive enzymes.

FALSE. The ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis. They are found in the cytosol and some are in the endoplasmic reticulum.

digestion

it excretes wastes

b tumor cells have a cell wall instead of a membrane

explanation:

tumor cells different from normal cells because tumor cells have a cell wall instead of a membrane.
