Question
Answer
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  
🗑

🗑
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  
🗑

🗑
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.
