Check all that are true about vacuoles.

• stores food only

• small in animal cell, large in plant cells

• stores food, water, minerals, and waste

• this is where photosynthesis occurs

What is the function of ribosomes?

• found only in animal cells

• makes food for the cell

• helps the nucleus

• makes proteins in the cell; found in the cytoplasm and rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER)

What is the function of the Golgi Body?

• transporting proteins

• storage and packaging of proteins

• makes ribosomes

• it doesn't have a function

Check all that apply to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

• transports proteins

• rough and smooth ER

• smooth ER has ribosomes present and rough does not

• found in animal cells only

• found in both plant and animal cells

What do lysosomes do for the cell?

• digests and breaks down cell waste and old parts that have died

• gives cell its structure

• gives cell its green color

• jelly-like fluid that holds all the organelles

Check all that apply to the cell membrane.

• in plant and animal cells

• outer boundary of the cell

• surrounds cytoplasm

• acts as security guard; determines what can enter and exit the cell

• protects and supports the cell
