Types of cells

Question 1

Animal Cells

Answer 1

Animal cells have centrioles paired structures involved in cell division, and plants do not.

Question 2

Plant Cells

Answer 2

Plant cells contain walls and chloroplasts ( with chlorophyll)… animal cells do no.

Question 3

Animal Cells ( shape)

Answer 3

Irregular

Question 4

Plant Cells ( shape)

Answer 4

Rectangular in shape

Question 5

Organelles
1. Cell Membrane

Answer 5

Protective barrier around cell that allows different substances to move through it

Question 6

Describe the cell membrane?

Answer 6

Made of a double layer of lipids

Question 7

What is a cell

Answer 7

Basic unit of life

Question 8

What Are Lipids?

Answer 8

Fat-like molecule that does not dissolve in water

Question 9

2. Cytoplasm

Answer 9

Jelly-like substance that fills the cell + surrounds the organelles

Question 10

3. Nucleus

Answer 10

The control centre of the cell ( controls growth, reproduction)
surrounded by nuclear envelope
Contains nucleolus ( produces ribosomes)
Contains the cells DNA

Question 11

What is DNA?

Answer 11

DNA is ( Deoxyribonucleic acid) which codes for the making of proteins and other molecules

Question 12

4. Vacuole

Answer 12

Store nutrients, wastes, and other substances used by the cell.

In plant cells, the central vacuole stores water for the cell

Question 13

Vesicles

Answer 13

Transport substances throughout the cell

Question 14

5. Mitochondria

Answer 14

Supplies energy to the cell

Question 15

How does Mitochondria supply energy to the cell

Answer 15

It converts chemical energy in sugar into energy the cell can use

Question 16

6. Lysosomes

Answer 16

Filled with enzymes, breaks down bacteria, and damaged cell parts

Question 17

Where does digestion occur ?

Answer 17

The Lysosomes

Question 18

Enzymes

Answer 18

Proteins that speed up chemical reaction

Question 19

7. Endoplasmic Reticulum

Answer 19

Carries materials throughout the cell made of a series of interconnected tubes

Question 20

7a. Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum( RER)

Answer 20

Has ribosomes attached to it

Question 21

What are ribosomes?

Answer 21

Sites where proteins are assembled

Question 22

7b. Smooth endoplasmic Reticulum

Answer 22

Has no ribosomes attached

Question 23

8. Golgi Apparatus

Answer 23

Modifies, sorts, packages proteins and other materials from E.R

Question 24

9. Centrioles

Answer 24

Involved in animal cell division

Question 25

10. Cytoskeleton

Answer 25

An internal network of fibres maintain the shape of the cells Made up of microfilaments

Question 26

What are microfilaments?

Answer 26

involved in muscle contracting and microtubes, act as tracks for movement

Question 27

Where is the cell wall found?

Answer 27

Only found in plants

Question 28

Cell wall description

Answer 28

Rigid frame provides strength, protection, and support

Question 29

Chloroplasts

Answer 29

Only found in plant cells Contain chlorophyll, includes thylakoids

Question 30

Chlorophyll

Answer 30

A green substance that uses energy from the sun to convert CO2 and H2o into sugar and O2 during photosynthesis

Question 31

Thylakoids

Answer 31

Little sacs stacked like coins that act as solar collectors are surrounded by a thick fluid called stroma

Question 32

What are stacks of thylakoids called?

Answer 32

Granum

Question 33

How do you find the total magnification seen in a microscope?

Answer 33

Magnification of object x Magnification of lens (10x)(10x)=100x

Question 34

What is resolution?

Answer 34

The ability to distinguish between 2 images

Question 35

What is diffusion ?

Answer 35

The process for moving substances across the cell membrane

Question 36

What is diffusion ?

Answer 36

The process for moving substances across the cell membrane

Question 37

Parts of a microscope
