The functions of the nuclear membrane are:

It serves to separate the chromosomes from the rest of the cell.

100

The functions of the cell membrane are:

1.Boundary between the inside and outside of the cell.

2.Controls movement of materials going in and out of the cell. For instance, waste, water, organic compounds and protein.

3.Helps to maintain a chemical balance within the cell.

DNA is made from how many strands?

Double strand

100

RNA is made from how many strands?

Single strand

100

What is the first phase of cell cycle?

Interphase

200

The functions of the cytoplasm are:

•contains storage vacuoles and vesicles to store nutrients and waste

•contains enzymes needed for metabolic reactions.

200

The functions of the endoplasmic reticulum are:

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the largest membrane-bound organelle in eukaryotic cells and performs a variety of essential cellular functions, including protein synthesis and processing, lipid synthesis, and calcium (Ca2+) storage and release.

200

Where is DNA found?

Nucleus

For mRNA what letter is used instead of T?

U for Uracil

200

What is the second phase of the cell cycle?

Mitosis

300

The functions of the golgi apparatus are:

•To sort and package proteins from the ER.

•These protein vesicles are either secreted or used internally.

300

The functions of the nucleus are:

Contains and processes genetic information, controls cell metabolism and protein synthesis

The functions of the ribosomes are:

decoding the message and the formation of peptide bonds.
