Control and Protection
This structure controls what enters the cell.
What is the cell membrane
Known as the powerhouse of the cell, this organelle uses glucose and oxygen to produce energy for cells and tissues.
What is the mitochondria
These tiny structures produce proteins.
What are ribosomes
This organelle mainly stores substances.
What is a vacuole
This type of cell has a nucleus: prokaryotic or eukaryotic?
What is Eukaryotic
This structure stores genetic material, directs activities of the cell, and is its control center.
This organelle is the site of photosynthesis.
What is a chloroplast
These structures carry materials from one location in the cell to another, or to the cell membrane.
What are vesicles
This structure supports and anchors some structures within cells.
What is the cytoskeleton
Bacteria are this type of cell because they do not have membrane bound organelles or a nucleus
What is Prokaryotic
This structure separates the nucleus from the cytoplasm.
What is the nuclear membrane
Photosynthesis uses light as a source of energy to produce sugars from these two materials
what are carbon dioxide and water
This organelle modifies and sorts proteins and lipids before they are transported to their final locations.
What is the Golgi body/apparatus
This is the jellylike part of the cytoplasm called.
what is cytosol
The cells of a lizard would be this kind of cell.
This structure provides support and protection outside the cell membrane in plant cells.
What is the cell wall
Daily Double!!!! (each group silently write your answer on your whiteboard and how many points you want to wager between 100-1,000)
A scientist observes a cell with no nucleus and no membrane-bound organelles. The cell is from a bacterium. Identify the cell type and state whether it has a nucleus.
What are Prokaryotic cells, that do not have a nucleus.
This organelle is involved in the production of proteins and lipids. It may be smooth or covered with ribosomes.
What is the Endoplasmic Reticulum
This is the location of many reactions that take place in a cell.
What is cytoplasm
Do E. Coli (bacteria) have a nucleus?
what is no they do not
This control center stores genetic material, and this structure separates it from the cytoplasm. Name both.
What are the nucleus and nuclear membrane
A plant cell makes its own sugars from carbon dioxide and water using light. An animal cell lacks the organelle that does this. What is the organelle?
What is are chloroplasts
This organelle breaks down toxins and wastes with enzymes and is sometimes called the “garbageman of the cell.”
What is a lysosome (Miss Lee's favorite organelle)
How are vacuoles different in plant and animal cells?
What is vacuoles are larger in plant/smaller and more numerous in animal
Name one organelle eukaryotic cells have that prokaryotic cells lack
What is a nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplast, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi body, lysosomes, vacuoles or vesicles
