Question 2 The picture shows the lysosomes and ribosomes of a cell. Which best describes how the lysosomes and the ribosomes interact to maintain homeostasis? a Ribosomes distribute proteins that are created by lysosomes. b Lysosomes deliver enzymes to be broken down by ribosomes. c Ribosomes sort proteins that are created by lysosomes. d Lysosomes store enzymes that are created by ribosomes.

Answer 1

The best description of how lysosomes and ribosomes interact to maintain homeostasis is:

d. Lysosomes store enzymes that are created by ribosomes.

Ribosomes synthesize proteins, including enzymes, and these enzymes can be stored in lysosomes, which are responsible for breaking down waste materials and cellular debris. This interaction helps maintain homeostasis by ensuring that cellular processes are regulated and that waste is effectively managed.
