Question 2

Cell membrane function

Answer 2

Controls what goes in and out of a Cell

Question 3

Cell wall structure

Answer 3

Rigid structure made of cellulose (carbohydrate)

Question 4

Cell wall function

Answer 4

Provides and maintains the shape of the cell and serves as a protective barrier.

Question 5

Cytoplasm structure

Answer 5

Jelly-like fluid that fills the cell.

Question 6

Cytoplasm function

Answer 6

Contains all the organelles (cell parts) and is a location for chemical reactions.

Question 7

Mitochondria structure

Answer 7

Membrane structure that has a smooth outer membrane and a highly folded inner membrane.

Question 8

Mitochondria function

Answer 8

Converts sugar to ATP so the cell can carry out its functions.

Question 9

Lysosomes structure

Answer 9

Small, membrane-bound structure.

Question 10

Contains enzymes necessary for intracellular digestion.

Question 11

Vesicle structure

Answer 11

Membrane-bound structures that form from the cell membrane or Golgi Body.

Question 12

Vesicle function

Answer 12

Transports molecules throughout the cell.

Question 13

Golgi bodies structure

Double outer membrane and contains light-collecting parts.

Question 15

Chloroplast function

Answer 15

Converts sunlight energy to sugar.

Question 16

Golgi bodies function

Answer 16

Packages macromolecules (like proteins) and distributes them.
