Question
Answer
These cells do not contain a nucleus.   Prokaryote  
🗑
The amoeba has a nucleus; it is an example of an __________________.   eukaryote  
🗑
These tiny hair-like structures move back and forth on the paramecium to move the organism throughout their environment.   cilia  
🗑
This whip-like appendage moves an organism throughout the water environment.   flagellum  
🗑
This cell has no nucleus or membrane-bounded organelles.   prokaryote  
🗑
This organelle controls the the activities of the cell and genetic material in the cell.   nucleus  
🗑
This is the organelle allows plant cells and some protists to make their own food through photosynthesis.   chloroplasts  
🗑
This structure protects the cell from the outside environment.   cell membrane  
🗑
This structure gives plant cells its shape. It is hard, rigid outermost structure of the cell. Protects the cell from harmful organisms and bacteria.   cell wall  
🗑
This structure is found in a protist and plant cell. It stores food and other products of the cell.   vacuole  
🗑
The paramecium is an example of   eukaryote  
🗑
The paramecium uses these short hair-liake appendages that move back and forth to move in its environment.   cilia  
🗑
The euglena and bacterial cells have a long whip-like structure to move and keep harmful material away from the cell.   flagellum  
🗑
These structures are not found in the animal cell but are found in the plant cell.   chloroplast and cell wall  
🗑
Why do plant cells have large vacuoles?   The store food, water, and waste. They need large vacuoles to store food made during photosynthesis.  
🗑
Animal cells have two items in common.   They have a nucleus and membraned-surrounded organelles.  
🗑
These cells have cell walls and no nucleus. Their organelles are not surrounded by a membrane   Prokaryote  
🗑
The Euglenoid and Plant cells have this in common have this in common.   They make their own food using Photosynthesis.  
🗑
The Euglenoid uses this structure to move.   flagellum  
🗑
Breaks down food and worn cell parts   lysosome  
🗑
The cell membrane encloses objects that are too large to pass through the cell membrane.   vesicle  
🗑
transports packaged Proteins to different parts of the cell.   endoplasmic reticulum  
🗑
Proteins are created here.   ribosomes  
🗑
Cells are made pre-existing cells; cells are the basic unit of life; and cells are the smallest unit of life.   cell theory  
🗑
Glucose is converted into a form a cell can use. Food is converted into energy.   mitochondrion  
🗑
the organelle that packages proteins to be prepared parts of the cell and out of the cell   Golgi apparatus  
🗑
Makes ribosomes for the cell   ribosome  
🗑
vesicles of the animal cell that help break down and recycle different parts of the cell   lysosomes  
🗑
directs all the activity of the cell; holds the genetic material of the cell   nucleus  
🗑
creates proteins   ribosome  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
