Based on the descriptions given, determine what organelle you think is malfunctioning in each patient. Name the organelle and 1-2 sentences describing why you think it’s the one described. Patient 1: Cell division is impaired and the cell has an abnormal shape. Patient 2: Various chemical reactions are happening at a reduced rate and cellular export of proteins is diminished. Patient 3: Accumulations of old organelles and engulfed particles are making the cells crowded. Patient 4: Lethargy; low levels of cellular ATP.
