Researchers designed an experiment to see the effects of different toxic compounds on prokaryotes. In the questions below, answer which organelles or structures were affected, along with a brief rationale. A. Compound 1 caused the bacteria to dissolve. B. Compound 2 prevented enzyme synthesis. However, the DNA was not affected C. Compound 3 prevented enzyme synthesis. However, the ribosomes were still intact D. Compound 4 had no effect on the bacteria. It was designed to inhibit golgi activity. Explain why this compound had no effect E. Compound 5 had no effect on the bacteria. It was designed to inhibit mitochondrial activity. Explain why this compound had no effect.
