Study for Mrs. Estes Test
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Location of vacuole | throughout most of the cell |
| Function of vacuole | stores substances |
| location of cytoplasm | inside the cell membrane |
| function of cytoplasm | supports the organelles |
| location of lysosomes | throughout the cytoplasm |
| function of lysosomes | keeps everything in order |
| location of ER | in the cytoplasm |
| function of ER | makes sure proteins, lipids, and other molecules are processed in the cell |
| location of chloroplasts | in the cytoplasm |
| function of chloroplasts | responsible for photosynthesis |
| location of Golgi body | near the nuclues |
| function of Golgi body | modifies, sorts, and packages molecules |
| location of cell membrane | outer edge of the cell |
| function of cell membrane | controls what enters and leaves the cell, kind of like a gate keeper |
| location of mitochondria | all throughout the cell |
| function of mitochondria | produces energy |
| location of nucleus | center of the cell |
| function of nucleus | stores the cells genetic material |
| location of ribosomes | in the cytoplasm |
| function of ribosomes | make proteins |
| location of cell wall | outside the cell membrane |
| function of cell wall | protects the cell |
| location of chromosomes | in the nucleus |
| function of chromosomes | creates the cells genetic material |
| location of DNA | in the nucleus |
| function of DNA | contains the vast majority of cell genetic information |
| function of flagella | helps the cell move around |
| location of flagella | on a prokaryotic cell’s surface |
| location of cilia | attached to a eukaryotic cell’s surface |
| function of cilia | on some cells they keep unwanted molecules out of the way, other cells they serve a similar function to the flagella, helping the cell move around |
