True or false: Both prokaryotes and eukaryotes contain a nucleus.
False. Only eukaryotes
Which organelle is the location of photosynthesis?
Chloroplast
What is the basic unit of all life?
the cell
This helps a plant cell keep its shape and protects it (two words).
Cell Wall
Which cell type do humans have?
Eukaryotic Cells
True or False: Eukaryote cells are only unicellular?
False, Eukaryotes can be unicellular or multicellular.
Which organelle helps the cell maintain homeostasis?
Cell Membrane-it controls what enters and leaves the cell.
What living organism has prokaryotic cells?
bacteria
This is known as the powerhouse of the cell. It breaks down glucose to make energy

Why are plant cells different than animal cells?
Plant cells have chloroplasts and a cell wall. Animal cells do not have chloroplasts or a cell wall.
Plants have a central vacuole that is larger than the vacuole in animal cells.
What do Ribosomes make?
Protein

little organ
True or false: Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes both have cytoplasm and ribosomes.
True
Which organelle packages and sorts proteins?
Golgi apparatus or body
What are three structures ALL cells have in common?
Cell membrane, cytoplasm, DNA, ribosomes
This helps the cell with digestion and can destroy bacteria as well as recycle worn out cell parts.

Mitochondria
Three organelles are found in every cell, what are they?
Cytoplasm, ribosomes, and cell membrane
What is the brain of the cell (starts with an N)?
