Cells And Cell Types

Question 1

What are cells

Answer 1

The smallest units of life that can replicate independently

Question 2

Which cells are multicellular

Answer 2

Animal and plant cells which mean they are growing and replacing dead cells

Question 3

What are sub-cellular structures

Answer 3

They are organelles and they make up the cells

Question 4

What does the cell membrane do

Answer 4

Let some substances pass inside and outside the cell

Question 5

Nucleus

Answer 5

Contains genetic material/dna

Question 6

Ctyoplasm

Answer 6

Is where the chemical reactions occur (this is a jelly-like substance)

Question 7

Mitochondria

Answer 7

Provides cells with the energy they need to function (with aerobic respiration)

Also to release energy for the cell to use

Question 8

Ribisomes

Answer 8

Is where proteins are made

Question 9

What is the plant cells wall made up of

Answer 9

Cellulose which is really strong and provide support and structure

Question 10

What is a permanent vacuole

Answer 10

Contains cell sap (mixtures of sugars, salts, water)

Question 11

Chloroplasts

Answer 11

Is where photosynthesis (process plants use energy from the sun making sugars)

Also the chloroplasts contains chlorophyll (green substance) which makes plants leaves green

Question 12

Bacteria cells

Answer 12

Are prokaryotic which mean they are unicellular (1 cell)

They don’t contain mitochondria or chloroplasts

They have a circular strand of dna which they need to survive+reproduce

Some bacteria contain plasmids-extra genes which contain (anti-biotic resistance)

Some also have flagella (which allow the bacteria to move around)
