Q

All cells have what…..

A

DNA, Cytoplasm, ribosomes, and cell membrane

31
Q

what types of cells have a nucleus?

A

plant, animal, fungi, and protists

32
Q

what does the nucleus have?

A

genetic material - DNA, cell membrane

33
Q

what is the job of the nucleus?

A

directs all cell activities

34
Q

true or false: nucleus are only in eukaryotic cells

35
Q

what else happens to the nucleus?

A

it divides during cellular division (mitosis)

36
Q

what types of cells have DNA?

A

all of them

37
Q

what does DNA have?

A

has code (instructions) to make proteins

38
Q

where is DNA found?

A

DNA is found loose as very long strings of chromatin

39
Q

what does DNA do when cell is ready to divide (mitosis)?

A

it will coil and condense into chromosomes when the cell is ready for mitosis, a copy of all DNA in a cell goes to the new cell

40
Q

how many chromosomes do humans have?

A

humans have 46 chromosomes

41
Q

what types of cells have a nucleolus?

A

plant, animal, fungi, protists

42
Q

what is the job of the nucleolus?

A

it produces ribosomes

43
Q

what types of cells have a nuclear membrane?

A

plant, animal, fungi, protists

44
Q

what is the job of the nucleolus?

A

it surrounds and protects the nucleus, has a double layer with pores (holes), and allows certain molecules to move in and out of the nucleus

45
Q

what organelles are used for assembly and transport?

A

ribosomes, rough ER, smooth ER, golgi bodies/complex, vesicles

46
Q

what types of cells contain ribosomes?

A

all of them

47
Q

what is the job of ribosomes?

A

makes proteins, it is scattered around the cytoplasm

48
Q

what types of cells contain endoplasmic reticulum?

A

plant, animal, fungi, and protists

49
Q

how many types of ER are there?

A

two; rough and smooth

50
Q

what does the ER do?

A

makes lipids and some proteins, moves things around the cell

51
Q

what does the rough ER do?

A

proteins that will be sent out are made in the rough ER, ribosomes makes proteins and rough ER moves them

52
Q

what does the smooth ER do?

A

assembles (makes) lipids (fats), then transport the lipids to other parts of the cell

Q

what types of cells contain golgi bodies?

A

eukaryotic cells

54
Q

what do golgi bodies do?

A

packages proteins and other materials to be put in vesicles

55
Q

what organelles are for storage and disposal?

A

vesicles, vacuoles, lysosome

56
Q

what types of cells contain vesicles?

A

all of them

57
Q

what do vesicles do?

A

vesicles with proteins are sent from rough ER to golgi and other vesicles are created by golgi to ship proteins

58
Q

what types of cells have vacuoles?

A

plant, fungi, and animal

59
Q

what do vacuoles in plant cells do?

A

membrane-bound sacs for storage and digestion, and waste removal

60
Q

what do vacuoles in animal cells do?

membrane-bound sacs for storage and digestion, and waste removal, animal cells have many small vacuoles

61
Q

what types of cells contain lysosomes?

A

almost all animal, some plant and protists

62
Q

what do lysosomes do?

A

they digest big molecules: proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, transports waste to be exported from the cell

63
Q

what organelles are used for energy?

A

mitochondria and chloroplasts

64
Q

what types of cells have mitochondria?

A

plant, animal, fungi, protists

65
Q

what do mitochondria do?

A

produces energy (ATP) through the process of cellular respiration by breaking down glucose into energy the cell can use

66
Q

what types of cells contain chloroplasts?

A

plant, some bacteria and protists

67
Q

what do chloroplasts do?

A

photosynthesis occurs, contains green chlorophyll that captures sunlight’s energy

68
Q

what organelles are used for locomotion? (movement)

A

centrioles, cilia, flagella, pseudopod

69
Q

what types of cells contain centrioles?

A

animal, many protists

70
Q

what do centrioles do?

A

help assemble flagella and cilia in many protists, helps with cell division for animal cells to separate copies of DNA with spindle fibers

71
Q

what types of cells have cilia and flagella?

A

animal, protists, and bacteria

72
Q

what does cilia do?

A

moves the cell around beating a lot of cilia at once

73
Q

what does flagella do?

A

moves the cell around by making a whipping motion

74
Q

what does pseudopods do ?

A

moves the cell by extending the cell membrane forward, then the rest of the cell follows
