Question 1

Define Cell membrane:

Answer 1

Regulates what comes into/out of the cell

Question 2

Define Cytoplasm:

Answer 2

A jelly-like substance containing cell parts

Question 3

Define Organelles:

Answer 3

Organelles are like “mini organs”
Small compartments in the cell

-different structures + functions
-work together

Question 4

Define Mitochondria:

Answer 4

The mitochondria uses chemical reactions to break down sugar molecules

—> releases energy

Question 5

Define Nucleus:

Answer 5

The Nucleus is an “info database”
Contains genes (special instructions cells use to carry out functions)

Question 6

Define Chloroplast:
And where is it only found?

Answer 6

Chloroplast is only found in plant cells
Responsible for carrying out photosynthesis, Chloroplast also give plants their green colour

—> produce sugar (plant cells use sugar as food)

Question 7

Define cell wall:
Where is it only found?
Where in a cell is it located?

Answer 7

The cell wall is outside the cell membrane and is only found in plant cells)
Provides structure to the cell

Question 8

Explain how Chloroplasts and Mitochondria work together.

Answer 8

Chloroplasts creates sugar through photosynthesis, Mitochondria then converts sugar into energy the cell can use
