True nucleus, most commonly a plant or animal cell, ‘complex’ cells

Question 2

Prokaryote

Answer 2

Before nucleus, most commonly a bacteria cell, ‘simple’ cells

Question 3

Vesicles

Answer 3

Small containers carry materials between cell compartments and out of the cell

Question 4

Cell membrane

Answer 4

Protective barrier around the outside of the cell, controls what gets in and out and helps cells communicate

Question 5

Nucleus

Answer 5

Stores DNA, location of transcription

Question 6

Cytoskeleton

Answer 6

Long fibers that give a cell shape and structure, keeps organelles in place and aids in cell movement

Question 7

Mitochondria

Answer 7

Kidney shaped with two layers of membrane, break down molecules to get energy for the cell in the form of ATP

Question 8

Ribosomes

Answer 8

Small structures without membrane, translate mRNA to make proteins

Question 9

Endoplasmic Reticulum

Answer 9

The smooth portion of this organelle are where lipids and hormones are made. The rough portion of this has ribosomes on the surface which makes proteins.

Question 10

Golgi Apparatus

Answer 10

Gets packages of proteins from the ER and moves them through a series of stacked compartments. Adds tags to proteins based on where they need to go in the cell.

Question 11

Lysosomes

Answer 11

Small compartments filled with digestive enzymes. Breaks down unneeded proteins and damaged cell parts for recycling.
