Cell Structures and Organelles

QuestionAnswer
This structure surrounds the cell. Cell Membrane
A gel-like liquid inside the cell. Cytoplasm
An organelle that releases energy from food molecules for the cell to use. Mitochondria
Give plants their green color, and produce sugar. Chloroplasts
A long molecule that is the genetic material for a cell. DNA
A type of organelle that make proteins. Ribosomes
A protective, flexible barrier that controls which materials enter and leave the cell. Cell Membrane
Helps maintain cell shape. Cytoplasm
Releases energy for cell use. Mitochondria
__ found in plant cells only. Chloroplasts
Short for deoxyribonucleic acid. DNA
An organelle that does not have a membrane. These organelle make proteins. Ribosome
This organelle provides usable energy to the cell. Mitochondria
A school’s cafeteria kitchen has a large, walk-in refrigerator where food is stored for lunch later in the week. Which cell organelle has a function that is similar to the refrigerator? Vacuole
In what part of a cell is hereditary information found? Nucleus
Found in plant cells, bacteria, and archaea but not in animal cells. Cell Wall
Cells remove waste from their cytoplasm by passing it through the ___ and out of the cell. Cell Membrane
Cells remove waste from their ___by passing it through the cell membrane and out of the cell. Cytoplasm
Cellular Respiration is the process, essential to the life of all organisms, that is the primary function of ___? Mitochondria
The function of the __ is to use energy from the sun to make sugar. Chloroplasts
Which of the following contains genetic material responsible for heredity and cellular control? Nucleus
Which organelle is the site for protein synthesis? Ribosome
Only plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, and a large __. Vacuole
In what part of a cell is hereditary information found? Nucleus
The function of the ___ is to control substances that enter and exit the cell Cell Membrane
The function of the ___ is to provide support for the cell. Cell Wall
___ is a gel-like substance, found in both plant and animal cells. Cytoplasm
How are chloroplasts in plant cells and mitochondrion in animal cells similar? Both are energy factories
Students observed cells under the microscope. They observed that the cells had a cell wall, cell membrane, nucleus, and many chloroplasts. Which observation helps students identify the type of cell observed? The presence of chloroplasts means that the cells are from a plant.
The fluid surrounding the organelles of a cell is the — Cytoplasm
The function of the ___ is to regulate substances that enter and exit the cell Cell Membrane

What process, essential to the life of all organisms, is the primary function of mitochondria? Cellular Respiration
What structure is characterized by a lipid bi-layer? Cell membranes
What types of organisms have cells with very large vacuoles? Plants
When comparing a plant cell to an animal cell, which structure is only found in a plant cell? Cell Wall
Where is chlorophyll usually found? Plant leaves
Which cell organelle stores DNA? Nucleus
Which cell structure is composed primarily of cellulose? Cell Wall
Which cell structure is not found in animal cells? Cell Wall
What are microscopic hairs used for locomotion by some unicellular organisms? Cilia
