Bell Work 10/5 - Cell Organelles

Front

What is the outer part of the cell that is in both plants and animal cells?

Back

Cell membrane - It acts as a barrier that controls what enters and leaves the cell.

Front

What is the jelly-like substance in the cell that contains the organelles?

Back

Cytoplasm - It is the fluid that fills the cell and holds the organelles in place.

Front

What organelle is only found in plant cells and is known as the 'solar panels'?

Back

Chloroplast - It is responsible for photosynthesis, converting sunlight into energy.

Front

What is the control center of the cell that contains DNA?

Back

Nucleus - It regulates cell activities and stores genetic information.

Front

What structure is only found in plants and prokaryotes and gives the cell a rigid shape?

Back

Cell wall - It provides structural support and protection.

Front

What are the small structures in the cell that produce proteins?

Back

Ribosomes - They can be found floating in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum.

Front

What is the function of the cell membrane?

Back

It regulates the movement of substances in and out of the cell.

Front

What is the role of lysosomes in a cell?

Back

Lysosomes contain enzymes that break down waste materials and cellular debris.

Front

What is the function of the endoplasmic reticulum?

Back

It is involved in the synthesis of proteins and lipids.

Front

What is the purpose of the Golgi apparatus?

Back

It modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids for secretion or use within the cell.
