Cell quiz practice
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Prokaryote | An organism made of a single cell; arose 2.5 billion years ago |
| Eukaryote | Made of one or more cells; arose 1 billion years later than the 1st prokaryote |
| Three Main Functions In A Prokaryotic Cell | Cytoplasm, Ribosomes, No Nucleus |
| Describe the structures that form the outside of a Prokaryotic cell; tell whether it is common to all Prokaryotic cells. | All have a: Cell Membrane, Cell Wall Some have a: Capsule |
| Cell Wall: Structure and Function | Structure: tough rigid outer covering Function: protects a plant cell and helps maintain shape |
| Cell Membrane: Structure and Function | Structure: thin layer of lipids and proteins Function: seperates the cell's contents from its environment |
| Cytoplasm: Structure and Function | Structure: semi-fluid substance made primarily of water and organic compounds; looks like jello Function: Organelles are suspended in the cytoplasm |
| Nucleus: Structure and Function | Structure: circular structure surrounded by nuclear membrane Function: houses genetic material; chromosomes |
| Nucleolus: Structure and Function | Structure: another identifying structure of the nucleus; inside the nucleus Function: area of ribosome formation |
| Ribosome: Structure and Function | Structure: small circular organelle found in the cytoplasm Function: makes protein needed by cells |
| Endoplasmic Reticulum(ER): Structure and Function | Structure: extensive network of membrane contents to the nuclear membrane; SER smooth, RER rough Function: produces materials for the cell, transports materials throughout the cell |
| Golgi Apparatus: Structure and Function | Structure: a series of flat, membrane bound sacs Function: molecules are sorted, often modified, packaged, and distributed to their destination |
| Mitochondria(Mitochondrion): Structure and Function | Structure: bean/pill/bread shaped located in the cytoplasm Function: change the energy stored in food into compounds that are useful to cells (ATP used for humans) |
| Lysosome: Structure and Function | Structure: sac like organelle that contains digestive enzymes Function: help break down larger molecules |
| Vacuole: Structure and Function | Structure: membrane bound compartment (large for plant cells) Function: absorbs water, stores proteins, ions, and the waste products of the metabolism |
| Cilia: Structure and Function | Structure: short hair like projections in large numbers on the surface of a cell Function: movement; transportation of materials |
| Flagella: Structure and Function | Structure: are long tail like projections; usually 1, sometimes 2 Function: movement |
| Chloroplast: Structure and Function | Structure: circular structure in plant cells Function: enables plants to make sugars through photosynthesis |
| Plant Cell | Chloroplasts, Cell wall, Large central vacuole |
| Animal Cell | Lysosomes, centrioles, cillia/flagella |
| What cell is the "powerhouse?" | Mitochondria |
| What cell is strong and stiff and is only in plants? | Cell Wall |
| What cell had DNA? | Chromosomes |
| What cell is the "brain" of the cell? | Nucleus |
| What cell uses the suns energy and is only in plant cells? | Chloroplast |
| What cell transports proteins? | Endoplasmic Reticulum |
| What cell is flexible and thin? | Cell Membrane |
| What cell makes proteins? | Ribosome |
| What cell is called a "storage tank?" | Vacuole |
| What cell can digest an injured cell and brake down large molecules? | Lysosome |
