The function of the Nucleus

What is controls the cell's activities and holds the DNA?

100

The library of the cell

Who is the nucleus?

100

The organelle in plant cells responsible for photosynthesis

What are chloroplasts?

100

How the cytoplasm and any other organelle work together

What is the cytoplasm holds all of the organelles in place and allows a place for reactions to occur?

200

The function of the cell membrane

What is the barrier that controls what goes in and out of the cell?

200

Air in the tires of a car is like... 

What is the water in the central vacuole of the plant cell? 

200

The organelle in plant or animal cells responsible for cellular respiration

What are mitochondria?


200

How the cell membrane and mitochondria work together in animal cells

What is the cell membrane allows glucose and oxygen molecules to pass through to get to the mitochondria for cellular respiration?
300

The function of the mitochondria

What is the organelle that breaks down glucose and turns it into ATP energy for the cell to function?

300

The bouncer, or guard at the entrance to a bar or event?

What is the cell membrane? 

300

The reason plant cells have cell walls and animal cells do not

What is for structural support and protection? What is animal cells need to be flexible to move and have body parts to protect themselves

300

How the chloroplast, mitochondria, and nucleus are similar in structure, and why?

What is they all have 2 layers of membranes, Nucleus for protection, mitochondria and chloroplast to create separate internal spaces. 

400

The function of the cell wall.

What is the protective barrier that surrounds plant cells and gives it support and structure?

400

Solar panels and a hydropower plant

What is the chloroplasts and the mitochondria?

400

Chloroplasts are found in both plants and animals?  True of False and why

What is True, Plants have chloroplasts to store energy in sugar, but need mitochondria to release the energy into ATP

400

How the ribosomes & golgi body work together

What is the ribosomes create proteins and the golgi body packages and exports proteins?

500

The function of the Golgi Body

What is packages and exports proteins?
500

The subway system, and/or interconnected caves

What are the Rough and Smooth ER

500

What do chloroplasts release that mitochondria need?

What are oxygen and glucose?

500

How the lysosomes and ribosomes work together

What is ribosomes create the enzymes (cutting proteins) that lysosomes need to break things down?
