Front

In biology class, Zach observes cells. Each cell has a structure that separates the inside of the cell from the environment. Which structure is Zach observing?

Back

cell membrane

Front

Liver cells require a great deal of energy, so which cell organelles would you expect to appear in large numbers?

Back

mitochondria

Front

What evidence exists in the diagram to explain that it is a plant cell and not an animal cell?

Back

the cell wall

Front

What organelle in the cell would compare to the brain in the body?

Back

nucleus

Front

Which organelle is represented by letter B? (Refer to the diagram of Cell 1 and Cell 2 with labeled organelles A-L)

Back

Chloroplast

Front

A scientist is studying a newly discovered single-celled organism. It has a cell wall, ribosomes, and DNA, but no nucleus. Based on the Venn diagram, which cell type does it most likely belong to?

Back

Cell A

Front

Identify the correct analogy for an organelle: The Nucleus is like a restaurant door, allowing customers in and out., Ribosomes are like taxis because they transport molecules and nutrients to the rest of the cell., Mitochondria are like factories because they produce the energy needed to run the cell., Cytoplasm is like Air Traffic Control at an airport because they control all the operations of a cell.

Back

Mitochondria are like factories because they produce the energy needed to run the cell.

In what way could two eukaryotic cells be different from each other?

Back

Two eukaryotic cells could differ in the number and types of organelles they contain

Front

What describes the relationship between the cytoplasm and the nucleus?

Back

The nucleus is surrounded by the cytoplasm.
