Functions
What is a thin, flexible barrier around the cell?
What is the cell membrane
What organelle synthesizes proteins and are found in both animal and plant cells?
What is ribosomes
What is the organelle that is a ball with nuclear pores on it?
What is nucleus
Name one organism that has a prokaryotic cell.
bacteria, archaea
What is a cell
What organelle contains digestive enzyme that breaks down old cell parts and cell invaders?
What is the Lysosomes
This is the packaging and shipping center of the cell. It receives, modifies, sorts, and sends proteins around or outside of the cell.
What is in the Golgi apparatus
This is made up of phospholipid bilayer. It is the outer later of the cell.
What is plasma membrane. (cell membrane)
Name two organisms that are considered eukaryotes.
plants, animals, fungi, protists
False
What controls most of the cell processes and contains the hereditary information of DNA?
What is the nucleus
This organelle is noticeably bigger in plants. It's main function is to store water, food, and waste.
What is vacuole
What organelle is dotted with ribosomes?
What is rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
Give four similarities between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.
DNA, ribosomes, cell membrane, cytoplasm, organelles
What is the first principle of cell theory?
All living things are made up of cells.
What is the organelle that helps ribosomes in synthesizing and transporting proteins?
What is the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
What organelle converts sunlight into food (glucose)?
What is chloroplast
What is the small organelle that is filled with enzymes?
What is lysosomes?
What is the main difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?
Prokaryotic cells do not have nucleus while eukaryotic cells do.
What did Robert Hooke observe under the microscope?
What cell organelle converts glucose (sugar) into ATP(energy)?
What is the Mitochondria
This jelly-like substance holds organelles in place.
cytoplasm
What organelle takes up most of the space of a plant cell?
What is vacuole
What is an evidence of eukaryotic cells evolving from prokaryotic cells?
Mitochondria has its own DNA.
Prokaryotic cell is simple while eukaryotic cell is more complex.
What are the three principles of cell theory?
1. All living things are made up of cells.
2. Cells are the smallest living unit.
3. Cells arise from pre-existing cells.
