The chloroplast
100
This is the smallest unit of life
The cell
100
Membrane-bound organelles that contain enzymes for breaking down waste
lysosomes
100
This term describes that cell membranes allow some things to move through them but not all things.
What is "semi permeable"?

A researcher inserts a DNA sequence for a salt-tolerance trait into a plant cell. The cell then produces an enzyme that helps maintain ion balance. What biomolecules are biomolecules involved?
Nucleic acids carry the genetic information, and proteins catalyze the reaction with Enzymes
200
The ______________ is the semipermeable boundary around all cells that allows things to enter and exit the cell
The Cell Membrane.
200
This structure surrounds the cell membrane and provides support in plants and fungi.
The cell wall
200
Single-celled Organisms that do not have a nucleus or membrane-bound organelles
Prokaryotes/Bacteria 
200
What gives the Rough Endoplasmic reticulum its rough, bumpy texture?
ribosomes located in there
200
A cell membrane is made of phospholipids, what biomolecule is this?
A phospholipid is a LIPID
200
A cyclist needs a food that can provide quick energy before a short race. Name the row that identifies the
biomolecule most directly associated with quick energy
Total Carbohydrate
300
The ____________ packages and transports proteins
The Golgi Apparatus
300
These small organelles, found in all cells, produce proteins.
The ribosomes
300
This is the jelly-like fluid inside of all cells. A combination of water and dissolved molecules like salts.
The cytoplasm
300
The eukaryotic cell has its DNA in this organelle
What is the nucleus
300
These macromolecules are located within the cell membrane to help move large molecules like glucose through. Clue: It is the same biomolecule as enzymes
PROTEINS
300
Which pair of statements best compares ATP and DNA?
F) ATP stores hereditary information; DNA provides immediate energy for cell work.
G) ATP transfers energy for cellular processes; DNA stores and transmits genetic information.
H) ATP is the main structural material in cell walls; DNA is an enzyme.
J) ATP forms the phospholipid bilayer; DNA transports molecules across membranes
Which pair of statements best compares ATP and DNA?
G) ATP transfers energy for cellular processes; DNA stores and transmits genetic information.
400
