Eukaryotic cell (plant/animal cell)

Question 1

Nucleus

Answer 1

contains DNA, regulates and controls cell activity

circular, contains pores and chromatin

Question 2

Cytoplasm

Answer 2

where chemical reactions take place
aqueous solution or colloidal suspension

Question 3

cell membrane

Answer 3

controls what goes in and out of the cell

found on the surface of animal cells and below the cell wall

Question 4

mitochondria

Answer 4

gives cell energy and site for respiration, produces most of the ATP in the cell

Question 5

ribosomes

Answer 5

where protein synthesis happens

found attached to the rough endoplasmic reticulum or free in the cytoplasm

Question 6

nucleolus

Answer 6

makes RNA and ribosomes

dense spherical structure in the middle of the nucleus

Question 7

vesicles

Answer 7

transport vesicles are used to transport materials inside the cell and secretory vesicles transport proteins

small membrane bounce sacs with fluid inside

Question 8

smooth endoplasmic reticulum

Answer 8

responsible for synthesis and transport of lipids and carbs

network of membrane bound sacs called cisternae no ribosomes

Question 9

rough endoplasmic reticulum

Answer 9

protein synthesis takes place on the ribosomes and the newly synthesised proteins

network of membrane bound flattened sacs called cisternae with ribosomes

Question 10

golgi apparatus

Answer 10

newly made proteins are received here from the rough endoplasmic reticulum. modifies them and then packages proteins into vesicles

a stack of membrane bound flattened sacs

Question 11

lysomes

Answer 11

break down waste material including old organelles

small spherical membrane bound sacs containing hydrolytic enzymes

Question 12

80S ribosomes

Answer 12

protein synthesis occurs here

attached to the rough ER

Question 13

centriole

Answer 13

they form spindle fibres during cell division

small tubes of protein fibres

Question 14

tonoplast

Answer 14

selectively permeable to allow small molecules to pass through

partially permeable membrane of the vacuole

Question 15

amyloplast

Answer 15

responsible for synthesis and storage of starch granules

double membrane bound sac containing starch granules

Question 16

plasmodesmata

Answer 16

enable transport and communication between individual plant cells

microscopic channels which cross the cell walls of plant cells
