Cell membrane surrounded by a cell wall.
What parts does a yeast cell contain?
Nucleus.
Cytoplasm.
Membrane surrounded by a cell wall.
What is the function of a nucleus?
To control activities of the cell.
Store genetic information.
When a cell adapts to a particular function, what is it said to be?
Specialised.
What is the function of a cytoplasm?
Provides a place for chemical reactions to occur.
What is the function of a cell membrane?
Control passage of substances into and out of the cell.
What is the function of a mitochondria?
Provides a place for most of the energy in respiration to be released.
Where does protein synthesis in the cell happen?
Ribosomes.
What feature do plant cells have which help them to strengthen and support their cells?
Cell walls.
What are cell walls made of?
Cellulose.
What is the function of chloroplasts?
Absorb light energy to make glucose and carry out photosynthesis.
What is found inside the permanent vacuole of plant cells?
Cell sap.
What is important about the genetic information in a bacterial cell?
It is not inside a distinct nucleus.
What part is missing from a red blood cell?
Nucleus.
Name features of a sperm cell?
Long tail.
Lots of mitochondria.
What do sperm cells have in their head?
Enzymes.
How many chromosomes do sperm cells have?
Single set of chromosomes.
What is the function of the goblet cell?
Produces mucus.
Where in the body do you find goblet cells?
Digestive system.
Lungs.
Why do cilia and sperm cells have lots of mitochondria?
They move a lot so need lots of energy.
