This organelle makes proteins in the cell
ribosomes
What is do the terms autotrophic and heterotrophic stand for?
Autotrophic: An organism that creates its own energy
Heterotrophic: An organism that consumes food for energy
The directions for making organisms. Contains hereditary information.
DNA
This organelle is the powerhouse of the cell that turns food into energy.
Mitochondria
DNA is located inside of this organelle
Nucleus

The conversion of light energy into usable (chemical) energy.
NO
Draw a picture of an animal cell.
....
This organelle controls what substances go in and out of the cell.
Cell membrane
Archeabacteria and Eubacteria are both what type of cell?
prokaryotic
This organelle is gel-like and holds the other organelles
Cytoplasm
Cell A produces significantly more energy than Cell B. What organelle is responsible for this higher energy output?
Mitochondria
This organelle stores water, nutrients, and waste in cells

This is the basic unit of structure and function in a living thing.
cell
What organelle is responsible for photosynthesis in a plant cell?
Chloroplast
This organelle cleans and removes waste from the cell
lysosomes
The vacuole is an organelle that stores water. What is the difference between the large central vacuole of the plant cell and the vacuole of an animal cell?
The vacuole in an animal cell only stores water.
The large central vacuole in a plant cell stores water and helps maintain its shape (structure).
A student claims that her cells have a cell wall. Why is she incorrect?
