plant and animal cells

Question 1

animal and plant cells both have

Answer 1

Cell membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, mitochondria, ribosomes

Question 2

Plant cells also have

Answer 2

Chloroplast, permanent vacuole and a cell wall

Question 3

cell membrane

Answer 3

controls what substances go in and out of the cell

Question 4

cell wall

Answer 4

gives the cell support and structure

Question 5

permanent vacuole

Answer 5

-stores water to keep cell rigid
-Helps to support the shape of the cell
-Has a jelly-like texture

Question 6

ribosomes

Answer 6

-protein synthesis

Question 7

chloroplasts

Answer 7

absorb light for photosynthesis

-Where photosynthesis takes place, using a green pigment called chlorophyll which is found in the chloroplast, which is needed to make food for the plant

Question 8

cytoplasm

Answer 8

a liquid gel in which chemical reactions take place

Question 9

nucleus

Answer 9

-Controls the activities of the cell

-Contains genetic material (including DNA)

-Cells would die without it as it wouldn’t be able to function

Question 10

eukaryotic cell?

Answer 10

a cell containing a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles

Question 11

prokaryotic cell

Answer 11

a cell that lacks a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles; includes Achaea and bacteria

Question 12

what is in a bacterium cell

Answer 12

cytoplasm
cell membrane
slime capsule
cell wall
plasmids
genetic material
flagella

Question 13

flagella

Answer 13

assists the cell in movement

Question 14

slime capsule

Answer 14

protects cell from physical and chemical attacks

Question 15

genetic material

Answer 15

replication and expression

Question 16

plasmids

Answer 16

replicate and move between cells so that genetic information can be shared.

Question 17

eukaryotic

Answer 17

animal, protist, plant, algae,fungi

Question 18

prokaryotic

Answer 18

bacteria, Archaea

Question 19

Cell differentiation

Answer 19

A process where cells change shape and structure to produce different functions

Question 20

Undifferentiated cell

Answer 20

A cell that has not yet acquired a special structure or function, such as a stem cell

Question 21

Function of Mitochondria:

Answer 21

-Where aerobic respiration takes place to release

-Aerobic respiration uses oxygen

Question 22

What is the cell wall of plant and algae cells made of and what does it do?

Answer 22

-Made of cellulose

-Strengthens the cell

Question 23

What is cell sap?

Answer 23

The solution inside the vacuole stores materials such as sugars, amino acids, waste products and mineral salts

Question 24

what is a cell?

Answer 24

-Are the basic units of life

-Are the building blocks of all living organisms

-All living things are made of cells

Question 25

What are the life processes organisms need to stay alive

Answer 25

Movement: can change its position Respiration: release energy from a ‘food’ source, requires oxygen Sensitivity: responds to things Growth: gets bigger Reproduction: can make copies of themselves Excretion: get rid of waste materials Nutrition: consumes chemical materials as food
