Q

What is the function of the cell membrane

A

The cell membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules and controls the movement of substances in and out of the cells. The basic function of the cell membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings.

What is the function of the cell wall
1. Provides support and Limited plasticity 2. Protection from insects and pathogens 3. Filter 4. Prevents overexpansion caused by too much water. 5. Keeps the shape of the plant 6. Allows plants to grow to great heights
25
Where is the cell wall located
Outside of the cell
26
What is the business analogy of a cell wall
Security- barbed wire
27
What is the function of the nucleus
To maintain the integrity of the genes and to control the activities of the cell by regulating gene expression the nucleus is therefore the control center of the cell and contains genetic material
28
Where is the nucleus located

Where is the nucleosis located
In the nucleus- takes up around 25% of the volume of the nucleus
32
What is the business analogy of the nucleolus
Production/shipping
33
What is the function of the mitochondria
Powerhouse of the cell – play a critical role in the generation of metabolic Energy in eukaryotic cells.
34
Where is the mitochondria located
Anywhere in the cytoplasm
35
What is the business analogy of the mitochondria
Generator
36
What is the function of the chloroplast
Organelles found in plant cells and eukaryotic algae that conduct photosynthesis. Space fillers
37
Where is the chloroplast located
Next to the central vacuole or any empty spaces
38
What is the business analogy of the chloroplast
Manufacturing plant
39
What is the function of the cytoskeleton
Provides an important structural framework for cell shape. It determines the shape of the cell
40
