6.1 Cells Study guide

Question 1

Prokaryote

Answer 1

Cells that don’t have a nucleus (Bacteria cells).

Question 2

Eukaryote

Answer 2

Cells that do have a nucleus (Plant and animal cells).

Question 3

Plant cells

Answer 3

Plant cells:
1. Digestive enzymes are stored in vacuoles.
2. Chloroplast pigments capture energy from the sun to make ATP which they then use to build sugars (photosynthesis).
3. Cell walls provide structural support

Question 4

Benefits of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell plans

Answer 4

Prokaryotic cells can reproduce easily. Eukaryotic cells can do more functions.

Question 5

Get rid of wastes

Answer 5

Plant cells: Goes to the vacuole for large waste.
Goes to cell membrane for small waste.
Animal cells:
Bacteria cells:

Question 6

Animal cells

Answer 6

Digestive enzymes are stored in lysosomes

Question 7

All cells

Answer 7

1. Larger molecules enter and leave the cell through proteins in the cell membrane
2. Get most of their energy through ATP
3. Make copies of DNA which meet with ribosomes to make proteins
4. Have enzymes that digest larger waste/food molecules
5. DNA contains genes, instructions for making molecules in the cell
6. Small molecules like carbon dioxide and oxygen can pass directly through the cell membrane

Question 8

Plant and Animal cells

Answer 8

1. DNA is stored in the nucleus
2. Enzymes in the mitochondria break down food/sugar molecules to release energy and transfer it to ATP
3. Have membranes that surround smaller compartments in the cell-organelles
4. Proteins can be made by ribosomes in the cytoplasm or be made inside the endoplasmic reticulum, then travel by vesicle to the golgi body for further processing, then travel by vesicle to where they need to go- outside the cell, the membrane or another compartment within the cell.
