- prokaryotic
-eukaryotic

Answer 1

prokaryotic

Question 2

what type of cell are anima, plant, algal and fungal ?

Answer 2

eukaryotic

Question 3

what is the difference between animal and plant cells

Answer 3

plant cells contain a vacuole, chloroplasts and a cell wall (cellulose)

Question 4

what is the difference between plant and algal cells

Answer 4

algal cells are a different shape and have one large chloroplast instead of little ones and no vacuole

Question 5

description and function:
cell-surface membrane

Answer 5

surrounds the cell, regulates movement of substances in and out of the cell

Question 6

description and function:
nucleus

Answer 6

large organelle surrounded by a nuclear envelope- containing pores, controls cells activities. contains DNA which contains instructions to make proteins

Question 7

description and function:
mitochondria

Answer 7

oval shaped, double membrane, site of aerobic respiration and produces ATP

Question 8

description and function:
chloroplasts

Answer 8

surrounded by a double membrane, where photosynthesis takes place

Question 9

description and function:
golgi apparatus

Answer 9

fluid filled membrane bound flattened sacs, processes and packages new lipids and proteins, makes lysosomes

Question 10

description and function:
golgi vesicle

Answer 10

produced by golgi apparatus,stores lipids and proteins made by apparatus and transports them out the cell

Question 11

description and function:
lysosome

Answer 11

a round organelle no clear internal structure, contained lysozymes, used to digest invading cells or break down worn down components

Question 12

ribosome

Answer 12

makes proteins, where translation takes place
