Question
In which of the following lists is the progression of sizes correct (going from smallest to largest) in a eukaryotic cell?
A. a water molecule; a glucose molecule; a ribosome; a typical protein molecule; a lysosome
B. a water molecule; a glucose molecule; a ribosome; a lysosome; a typical protein molecule
C. a water molecule; a glucose molecule; a typical protein molecule; a lysosome; a ribosome
D. a glucose molecule; a water molecule; a typical protein molecule; a ribosome; a lysosome E. none of these is correct
Explanation / Answer
Water (18Da) < Glucose(180Da) < A typical protein molecule (few 1000s of Da) < A ribosome (35-50 proteins) < A Lysosome (huge compared to the others, as it has lots of proteins enclosed in a membrane
