Answer 4

Membranous sacs associated with Er; processing and transport of proteins/lipids; synthesis and transport polysaccharides

Question 5

Lysosomes are?

Answer 5

Modified vesicles containing digestive enzymes used to digest bacteria, worn out cell parts, and other cells

Question 6

Mitosis has…

Answer 6

The same number of chromosomes retained; used in asexual reproduction, growth, maintenance, and repair

Question 7

Meiosis has…

Answer 7

Half of the number of chromosomes are retained; used in sexual reproduction, reductional division creates haploid cells, involves 2 sequential division resulting in 4 cells that are genetically different
