Organelle Function
Cell Organelles and Their Functions
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is the basic unit of life? | A cell |
| What surrounds a cell, is semipermeable, and is composed of a double layer of phospholipids and embedded proteins? | The cell, plasma, or phospholipid membrane |
| What is only in a plant cell and surrounds the cell membrane? It isn't selectively permeable and it also creates structure. | The cell wall |
| What also makes up the cell wall? (Substance for structure) | Cellulose |
| What is a small body located near the nucleus that is also known as the microtubule organizing center? | Centrosome |
| What is cell division also called? | Mitosis |
| Which types of cells contain centrosomes? | Animal cells |
| What are shaped like soda straws and give the nucleus and cell its shape? | Microtubules |
| What is the dense center of the centrosome? | The centriole |
| What spherical body in the center of the cell controls many of the functions of the cell (by controlling protein synthesis? It contains DNA. | Nucleus |
| What organelle is in the nucleus that makes ribosomes? | Nucleolus |
| What membrane covers the nucleus and has nuclear pores that allow materials to pass through? | The nuclear membrane |
| What is the jellylike material outside the cell nucleus in which the organelles are located? | Cytoplasm |
| All cells, even prokaryotes, contain these small bodies that allow protein synthesis to occur. | Ribosomes |
| What is the vast system of interconnected, membranous, infolded and convoluted sacs that are located in the cell's cytoplasm? It is covered with ribosomes, is continuous with the outher nuclear membrane, and transports materials throught the cell. | The rough ER (endoplasmic reticulum) |
| What part of the rough ER produces proteins in sacs and then are transported to the Golgi? | Cistern |
| What is a flattened, layerd, sac-like organelle that looks like a stack of pancakes? It modifies and packages pro. and carb. into mem. bound vesicles for export. | Golgi bodies/apparatus/complex |
| What does not have ribosomes on its surface, makes proteins and lipids that will be exported, and controls the calcium level in muscles and detoxifies poisons, alcohol, and drugs? | The smooth ER |
| What organelle is elongated or disc shaped and traps sunlight? It is only in a plant cell. | Chloroplast |
| What chemical allows photosynthesis to take place? It is green. | Chlorophyll |
| What is photosynthesis? | Chemical reaction changing sunlight into food for a plant |
| What are fluid filled sacs that fill with food to be digested or waste material? It is large in a plant cell, and small or nonexistant in an animal cell. | Vacuole |
| What is a spherical or rod-shaped organelle with a double membrane and has cristae in it? It converts glucose into ATP (chem energy) for the cell. | Mitochondria |
| What organelle digests material? | Lysosomes |
