5. Vesicle

a. This organelle sorts and packages proteins
b. Protein assembly is completed here and proteins are readied for transport
c. Initial sequence of nuleotides that determine type of protein comes from this organelle
d. This small package carries the protein to the cell membrane
e. The site of protein synthesis

Here are the correct matches for each organelle with its function:

  1. Nucleus - c. Initial sequence of nucleotides that determine type of protein comes from this organelle
  2. Ribosome - e. The site of protein synthesis
  3. Endoplasmic reticulum - b. Protein assembly is completed here and proteins are readied for transport
  4. Golgi apparatus - a. This organelle sorts and packages proteins
  5. Vesicle - d. This small package carries the protein to the cell membrane
