Organelle function is critical to a healthy, functioning organism. Therefore, diseases result when organelles malfunction.

Research a disease caused by a malfunctioning organelle. Post a description of the disease and explain why it occurs. Don’t forget to include the citation for the article(s) that you pull your information from. When conducting research on a topic, it is always a good idea to cross-reference information from one source with information from another source. Then, you’ll know it is accurate and trustworthy.
