Unit 3- Cell Structure

Question 1

Centriole

Answer 1

Structure that organizes motion of chromosomes.

Question 2

Answer 2

Stack of membranes that packages chemicals.

Question 3

Nuclear membrane

Answer 3

Membrane that protects the nucleus

Question 4

Cell membrane

Answer 4

Membrane that protects the nucleus.

Question 5

Lysosome

Answer 5

Sac filled with digestive chemicals.

Question 6

Mitochondria in an animal cell

Answer 6

Structures that convert nutrients to energy.

Question 7

Endoplasmic Reticular

Answer 7

Passageways where chemicals are made.

Question 8

Cytoplasm

Answer 8

A jelly-like substance within the cell.

Question 9

Nucleus

Answer 9

A structure that manufactures ribosomes.

Question 10

Vesicle

Answer 10

Package created by the Golgi apparatus.

Question 11

Ribosomes

Answer 11

Small structure that synthesizes proteins.

Question 12

Vacuole

Answer 12

Sac that stores, water, and nutrients or waste products.

Question 13

Cytoskeleton

Answer 13

Tubules and filaments that gives the cell its shape.

Question 14

What happens inside the mitochondria?

Answer 14

Sugars break down into water or oxygen and release carbon dioxide.

Question 15

How does the cell makes proteins inside the ribosome?

Answer 15

They translate RNA into amino acids and get created into a long chain. It folds into a complex shape forming protein.

Question 16

Vesicle

Answer 16

Are pulled along the cytoskeleton by a protein called kinesin, kinesin walks along microtubules

Question 17

What structures are present in an animal cell but not in a plant cell?

Answer 17

Centroile

Question 18

What structures are present in a plant cell but not in an animal cell?

Answer 18

Cell wall
Plastid
Chloroplast

Question 19

Chloroplasts

Answer 19

Converts sunlight into chemical energy. Also stores foods or pigment.

Question 20

The cell membrane, the cell wall, and the vacuole do what?

Answer 20

They support the plant cell and help maintain its shape

Question 21

Mitochondria in a plant cell

Answer 21

They convert food, also known as sugars into energy.
