Question 18

Cell Membrane

Answer 18

A thin covering that surrounds the cell. 
Protects the cell
Gives the cell its shape
Allows materials to enter and leave cell
Help keeps cell material together

Question 19

Cytoplasm

Answer 19

The living material inside the cell membrane but outside of the nucleus. Helps give cell shape
Most life function take place within cytoplasm

Question 20

Nucleus

Answer 20

Often found near the center of the cell. The Boss of the cell, very important during reproduction.

Question 21

Nuclear membrane

Answer 21

A thin covering that surrounds the nucleus, controls the passage of what goes in and out of the nucleus, and helps keep its shape.

Question 22

Mitochondria

Answer 22

Rod shaped. “Power houses” of the cell. Release and stored the energy the cell needs.

Question 23

Endoplasmic Reticulum

Answer 23

a network of channels. Like a series of roadways. They are used for loving materials within the cell.

Answer 26

Cell wall and Chloroplast

Question 27

Cell wall

Answer 27

Surrounds the cell membrane of a plant cell, the cell wall is made up of mom living material called cellulose. Is rigid and stiff than the cell membrane, gives it shape
