Which of the following is NOT part of the cell theory:
The cell is the smallest living unit in all organisms.
All cells have a nucleus.
All living things are made of cells.
All cells come from other pre-existing cells.
The difference between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells is that eukaryotic cells do not have a nucleus nor membrane-bound organelles.
True
False
Which part of the cell surrounds the cell and is selectively permeable, meaning it only allows certain molecules in and out.
cytoplasm
Golgi apparatus
Vacuole
Plasma or Cell Membrane
What is the jelly-like material inside cells that surrounds all the internal cell structures.
Plasma membrane
Cytoplasm
Nucleus
Vacuole
What do we call the collection of fibers within the cell that provide support for the cell and its organelles.
cytoskeleton
cytoplasm
plasma membrane
vacuole
Which organelle in the cell makes proteins for the cell?
Mitochondria
Golgi Apparatus
Nucleus
Ribosomes
Which membrane-bound organelle contains the genetic material of the cell (such as DNA) ?
Cytoplasm
Nucleus
Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
Mitochondria
Which organelle transports molecules for the cell (the transportation highway), and sends away molecules in vesicles?
Golgi Apparatus
Mitochondria
Chloroplasts
Endoplasmic Reticulum
What organelle within the cell is the "ultimate packaging center" because it receives items from the transport vesicles pinched off from the ER, contains enzymes that can modify molecules, and sorts the materials it receives to be sent around the cell.
Golgi Apparatus
Mitochondria
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Chloroplasts
What do Mitochondria do?
Process and package molecules within the cell and send them to where they need to go in the cell.
Synthesize (put together) and package proteins into vesicles.
Make ATP energy for the cell in a process called cellular respiration.
Make glucose for plant cells in a process called photosynthesis.
What do Chloroplasts do?
Make ATP energy for the cell in a process called cellular respiration.
Make glucose for plant cells only in a process called photosynthesis.
Receive, process, and package molecules within the cell and sends them where they need to go.
Makes proteins in a process called protein synthesis.
Which organelle is a place for storage of materials (usually waste and water) within the cell?
Nucleus
Vacuoles
Mitochondria
Ribosomes
Plant cells have a cell wall, which offers additional protection and shape maintenance, and animal cells do not.
True
False
Ribosomes are found where in the cell?
Floating freely in the cytoplasm only
Attached to the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum only
Attached to the nucleus
Both of the first two options
