How Cells Work

Question 1

What are cells?

Answer 1

Cells are the basic building blocks of all living things. They provide structure for the body, take a nutrients from food, convert those nutrients into energy, and carry out specialised functions. 

Question 2

What is the function of the cell membrane?

Answer 2

•keep structure and shape of cell
•semi permeable: let some things in and out
•communicated with other cells

Question 3

What is the name of the fluid inside the cell?

Answer 3

Cytoplasm

Question 4

What is the name of the outside layer of the human cell?

Answer 4

Membrane

Question 5

Describe the structure of the nucleus

Answer 5

Nucleus is inside a fully enclosed nuclear membrane, it contains the majority of the cells genetic material DNA

Question 6

What is the function of the nucleus?

Answer 6

• controls are so great and multiplication
• regulates cell metabolism
• is where synthesis of RNA takes place

Question 7

What is metabolism?

Answer 7

The process, by which your body converts what you eat, and drink it to energy

Question 8

Describe the structure of ribosomes

Answer 8

• and into areas of the cytoplasm, scattered freely (free ribosomes), or connected to the endoplasmic reticulum (bound ribosomes)
• age of proteins and ribonucleic acid

Question 9

Is the function of ribosomes

Answer 9

ribosomes are the protein borders or the protein synthesizers of the cell. they are like construction people, you connect one Amino acid at a time and build long chains.

Question 10

What is the function of smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum?

Answer 10

• transportation of proteins, and other carbohydrates to other organelles
• formation of nuclear membrane during cell division

Question 11

Describe the structure of the mitochondria

Answer 11

Unlike other organelles, they have two membranes, and out of one and another one. They contain Ford scored Christae and a fluid called matrix.

Question 12

What Is the function of the mitochondria?

Answer 12

Mitochondria are known as the powerhouse of the cell. They provide the energy to the cell.
Act like a digestive system, which takes the nutrients, break them down, and create energy rich molecules for the cell

Question 13

Describe the structure of centrioles

Answer 13

The centrioles are found in pairs and move towards the pose of the nucleus, when it is time for cell division

Question 14

What Is the function of centrioles?

Answer 14

Out of the cell when it comes to the south division. The centrioles help the formation of the spindle fibres that separate the chromosomes during cell division.

Question 15

Describe the structure of lysosomes

Answer 15

Alive so it’s basically a specialised vessel that holds a variety of enzymes. The enzyme proteins are first created in the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Those proteins are packaged in a vessel and sent to the Golgi apparatus. Lysosomes are single membrane organelles

Question 16

What Is the function of lysosomes?

Answer 16

Lila serves a little digestion machines, they go to work when the cell absorbs or eat some food. Where is the material is inside the cell, the lessons, attach and release the enzymes(acid)
• say, digest, excess, or worn out, parts of the cell, food, particles, and engulfed, viruses, or bacteria

Question 17

Describe the structure of the Golgi apparatus

Answer 17

Gogi apparatus consist of a system of membrane bound fluid filled vessels arranged, parallel to each other

Question 18

What is the function of the Golgi apparatus?

Answer 18

• packaging, organelle
• gather, simple molecules and convince them to make complex molecules
• it, then takes complex molecules, packages them in vessels, and either stores them for later use or send them out of the cell
• makes lysosomes

Question 19

What is a simple molecule?

Answer 19

Simple molecule contains one a few bonds, they are small. Also known as monomers.

Question 20

What are complex molecules?

Answer 20

Complex molecules, composed of many interconnected parts, or subunits, can contain hundreds or thousands of ones. Also known as polymers.
