Cell parts and types quiz 1 Flashcards
What are the main differences between Prokaryote and Eukaryote cells?
Prokaryote cells are unicellular and lack a nucleus, while Eukaryote cells can be unicellular or multicellular and have a nucleus.
Provide example organisms of Prokaryotes.
Bacteria and Archaea.
Provide example organisms of Eukaryotes.
Plants, animals, fungi, and protists.
What structures are present in ALL cells?
Cell membrane, cytoplasm, and genetic material (DNA).
Which type of cells can be unicellular?
Both Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes can be unicellular.
Which type of cells can be multicellular?
Only Eukaryotes can be multicellular.
Where is DNA located in Prokaryotic cells?
In the nucleoid region.
Where is DNA located in Eukaryotic cells?
In the nucleus.
What are the main parts of a Eukaryotic cell?
Nucleus, nucleolus, endoplasmic reticulum (rough and smooth), ribosome, golgi apparatus, mitochondria, chloroplast, cell wall, cell membrane, cytosol, vesicle, vacuole, lysosome.
What is the difference in number and size of vacuoles in plant and animal cells?
Plant cells typically have one large central vacuole, while animal cells have smaller vacuoles.
What are the differences between Plant Cells and Animal Cells?
Plant cells have a cell wall and chloroplasts, while animal cells do not.
How can you identify a Prokaryotic cell from a Eukaryotic cell?
By looking for the presence of a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
