Cell Organelles

Open Ended

What is the hereditary material found in a cell?

Multiple Choice

What role does the nucleus play in protein synthesis?

• It stores energy

• It contains instructions for making proteins

• It transports proteins

• It breaks down proteins

Multiple Choice

What is the function of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in cells?

• store waste

• sort and package proteins

• transport materials throughout the cell

• make proteins

Multiple Select

Select all the components that make up the nucleus:

• Nucleolus: make ribosomes

• Nuclear Pores: holes in the nuclear envelope that allow things to enter and exit the membrane

• Nuclear Envelope: the double-membrane barrier surrounding the nucleus

• Chromatin: where DNA is used in the nucleus

Multiple Choice

Discuss how the Golgi apparatus interacts with the endoplasmic reticulum to ensure proper protein processing and transport.

• The Golgi apparatus synthesizes proteins and sends them to the endoplasmic reticulum for modification.

• The endoplasmic reticulum modifies proteins and sends them to the Golgi apparatus for further processing and transport.

• The Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum work independently, with no interaction.

• The endoplasmic reticulum stores proteins, and the Golgi apparatus releases them into the cytoplasm.

Multiple Choice

What is the function of the organelle found in this picture?

• To break down food particles, wastes and old organelles

• To control cellular activities like protein synthesis

• To make energy by the process of cellular respiration

• To store water, nutrients and wastes

Multiple Choice

What is the role of thylakoids in chloroplasts?

• To store energy

• To increase surface area for photosynthesis

• To absorb sunlight

• To transport nutrients

Multiple Choice

Uses chemicals to break down food and worn out cell parts

• lysosomes

• ribosomes

• ER

• Golgi Bodies

Multiple Choice

How does the physical structure of lysosomes aid in the function of the cell?

• By providing structural support

• By speeding up reactions

• By storing waste materials

• By transporting proteins
