Answer 1

. Found in:
plants, prokaryotes

Maintains the shape of the cell and is a protective barrier

Question 2

44.

Chloroplasts:

Answer 2

Plants, some Protists

Uses the energy from sunlight to form glucose. Photosynthesis

Question 3

45.

Answer 9

All cells

Fluid in the cell

Question 10

Golgi body

Answer 10

All Eukaryotes

Receives products from ER and sort and sends the products out

Question 11

Lysosomes

Answer 11

All Eukaryotes

Membrane bound sac containing enzymes so large molecules can be broken down to be used

Question 12

Rough endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)

Answer 12

All Eukaryotes

Large folded membrane system covered in ribosomes. Helps to fold proteins

Question 13

Smooth ER

Answer 13

All Eukaryotes

Large folded membrane system that puts lipids together

Question 14

Microtubules and microfilaments

Answer 14

Long tubes that provide internal structure and allow for movement of the cell. An anchoring place for other organelles. Also important in cell division
