Cell organelles (Plant & Animal)

1

• A network of membranous tubules and sacs.
• Rough ER: Studded with ribosomes; helps fold, modify, and transport newly synthesized proteins.
• Smooth ER: Lacks ribosomes; synthesizes lipids and steroid hormones, stores calcium, and detoxifies poisons/drugs

Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)

2

• Structure: Oval-shaped with a double membrane; the inner membrane is folded into cristae and contains its own circular DNA.
• Function: The "powerhouse of the cell"; performs cellular respiration to convert glucose into ATP (cellular energy)

Mitochondria

3

• Structure: Double-membrane organelle containing stacked thylakoid membranes (grana) and the green pigment chlorophyll.
• Function: Converts light energy into chemical energy through photosynthesis.

Chloroplasts

4

• Stack of flattened, membrane-bound sacs (cisternae).
• Function: Receives proteins and lipids from the ER, modifies their structures, and sorts and packages them into vesicles for delivery. 

Golgi Apparatus

5

Surrounded by a double-membraned nuclear envelope with nuclear pores. Acts as the control center of the cell; stores hereditary information (DNA) and directs growth, reproduction, and gene transcription

The nucleus

Ecosystems

1

Which of the following organisms occupies the first trophic level in a typical terrestrial (land) ecosystem?

A. Red fox

B. Oak tree

C. Garter snake

D. Meadow vole

Show hint

B. Oak tree

2

What is the primary source of energy for almost all ecosystems?

The Sun (solar energy captured via photosynthesis by producers).

3

Which level of the energy pyramid has the most energy?

The bottom level (producers / autotrophs), because they directly capture energy from sunlight.

4

grass-rabbit-snake-hawk

5
