Question

Match the following columns.

Column I(Cell organelle)	Column II(Discovered by)
A. Ribosome	1. Fontana
B. Nucleolus	2. Tolbert and Yamazaki
C. Glyoxysome	3. Palade
D. Peroxisome	4. Beevers

• A. A- 1, B- 2, C- 2, D- 3
• B. A- 3, B- 4, C- 1, D- 2
• C. A- 1, B- 3, C-2 , D- 4
• D. A- 3, B- 1, C- 4, D- 2

Answer 1

The correct option is D A- 3, B- 1, C- 4, D- 2

Ribosome helps in the synthesis of protein. It was discovered by Palade.
Nucleolus helps in the synthesis of RNA. It was discovered by Fontana.
Glyoxysome is a special form of peroxisomes which carries glyoxylate cycle. It was discovered by Beevers.
Peroxisome helps in the breakdown of very long chain fatty acids through beta-oxidation. It was discovered by Tolbert and Yamazaki.

So, the correct answer is option D.
