Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells

Question 1

Identify the organelles labeled on the cell to the right. A B C D E F

Revolt · Accepted Answer

Selection 1: nucleus; Selection 2: lysosome; Selection 3: centrioles; Selection 4: cytoplasm; Selection 5: cell membrane; Selection 6: mitochondria

Question 2

Identify the organelles in the cell to the right.A B C D E F

Revolt · Accepted Answer

Selection 1: vacuole; Selection 2: chloroplast; Selection 3: cell membrane; Selection 4: Golgi apparatus; Selection 5: endoplasmic reticulum; Selection 6: cell wall

Question 3

Describe the function of each organelle.Nucleus

Revolt · Accepted Answer

The nucleus serves as the control center of the cell and contains the cell's genetic material (DNA). It directs all cellular activities, including growth, metabolism, and reproduction.

Question 4

Describe the function of each organelle.Vacuoles

Revolt · Accepted Answer

Vacuoles are organelles that store materials like water, salts, proteins, and carbohydrates. In plant cells, they also provide structural support.

Question 5

Describe the function of each organelle.Cytoplasm

Revolt · Accepted Answer

The cytoplasm is a jelly-like substance that fills the cell, provides support to the organelles, and serves as the site for many chemical reactions.

Question 6

Which of the following did you remember?

Revolt · Accepted Answer

A: The nucleus directs cell activity.; B: Ribosomes produce proteins for the cell. These proteins are then moved through the cell by the endoplasmic reticulum.; C: The Golgi apparatus packages and distributes proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum.; D: Vacuoles store water, waste products, food, etc.; E: Lysosomes break down waste material and debris.; F: Mitochondria break down sugar molecules to supply energy. Similarly, chloroplasts capture the energy from sunlight and convert it into chemical energy.; G: The cell membrane protects the cell and controls what enters and leaves it. The cell wall supports the cell membrane, maintains the cell’s shape, and protects the cell.; H: The cytoplasm supports and protects organelles in the cell.

A

Question 9

Ribosome

Revolt · Accepted Answer

Ribosomes are the sites of protein synthesis in the cell, where they translate genetic instructions into amino acid chains.

Question 10

Lysosomes

Revolt · Accepted Answer

Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles that contain digestive enzymes. Their primary function is to break down waste materials, cellular debris, and foreign substances like bacteria, effectively acting as the cell's waste disposal and recycling center.
