Case Study
by: Kamryn Rogers and Shayna Davis
Case of Olivia Kalie
Case of Frank Rentz
Case of Benjamin Botten
Case of Mary Streaver
In the case of Mary Streaver, the organelle being targeted is the peroxisome. We came to the conclusion because they deal with enzymes and fatty acids. The enzymes irate things such as amino acids which were found at a high concentration in Mary's body. The peroxisome is located inside the cytoplasm. Therefore, the cytoplasm is being targeted in a way. The peroxisome also matches the size of the organelle missing in Mary's body. It can range from anywhere between 0.1 to 1.0.
Conclusion: Is any organelle more important than the rest?
